General Description

The following web pages represent an ongoing project aimed at
developing a set of realistic in-silico simulations of
processes associated with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and
neurodegeneration. The programs we are developing are java-based,
accessible over the web, and designed to enable exploration of
numerous biologically-based parameters influencing disease progression.
Links to the literature base, and full derivations of assumptions,
parameters, and interactions are also provided. If you have comments
about these simulations, or would like to contact us, kindly email
keshet@math.ubc.ca.
