'Toward Good Simulation Practice’: The Book

'Toward Good Simulation Practice’: The Book

GSP TF book "Toward Good Simulation Practice - Best Practices for the Use of Computational Modelling and Simulation in the Regulatory Process of Biomedical Products" is now available! The document marks a significant milestone in the field of in silico medicine, advocating for the strategic use of Computer Modelling and Simulation (CM&S) as a regulatory decision support tool in medical product development. At the heart of this initiative is the collaborative effort among leading organizations in the field: the VPH Institute, the Avicenna Alliance, and the EU-funded In Silico World project.

Avicenna Alliance:

enhanced knowledge, improved decisions, better outcomes

Modelling and simulation

Modelling and simulation, which is the core of predictive medicine, is already used to improve decision making in a range of other industries such as aviation, finance and weather forecasting.
In aviation design

In aviation design, the use of modelling and simulation can reduce the need to design and build multiple prototypes.
relevant data Engineers take all the relevant data and build a computer model to help them decide which aircraft would be the fastest, safest and most efficient.
reduces the cost

This improves their decision making and reduces the cost of their research.
testing medical devices

The same principle can be applied to clinical trials, testing medical devices and early detection of diseases
