- pkdbv0.12.13
pkdb 0.12.13 closes the last gap of the conversion of study format 1 folders: pkdb migrate refuses a study when a row that it converts holds a number in a column that study.json does not map, as it already did for rows that it drops, so no number of a converted row is lost without notice, and the…
- sbmlsim0.9.7
A performance release: the constant parameters and the species of a model are read once per instance of roadrunner instead of on every call of sampling.parameters_of. The simulations are unchanged. The faster JIT of roadrunner, LLJIT, was measured and is not used, roadrunner 2.10 crashes with it…
- livermetabolism-site0.12.6
A patch release that announces the Open Science Award 2026 of the University of Lübeck, updates two publications, and makes continuous integration lighter and faster.
- sbmlode0.3.0
sbmlode 0.3.0 writes the ODE system of an SBML model as python code of JAX, which diffrax simulates: jax.jit compiles the simulation, jax.vmap batches it over constants and initial states, and jax.grad and jax.jacfwd differentiate it, a model with events included. It passes every case of the SBML…
- sbmlutils0.16.0
Interpolation.drive drives a parameter, species or compartment of an existing model with the interpolated data, in place; x is the time or a quantity of the model, targets maps a column to the element it drives (#16, #500) · Interpolation.drive_comp drives a model through a comp model which…
- sbml4humans0.12.2
The python package supports Python 3.12, 3.13, 3.14 and 3.15.
- cy3sbmlv0.9.0
This release opens the model of a network in sbml4humans with one click, and reviews the code base: fixes, security hardening, cleanups, performance and documentation.
- pkpdbib0.2.1
The code is now licensed under the MIT license instead of the LGPLv3, as the other packages of the group (sbmlutils, sbmlsim, pymetadata). · pyzotero and polars are standard dependencies, the optional zotero extra was removed; pip install pkpdbib installs everything needed for pkpdbib.zotero_tools.
- libsbgnpy0.7.0
This release follows the latest SBGN specifications (PD L1V2.1, ER L1V2.0, AF L1V1.2) and validates documents against the rules of the specifications: the rules the schema cannot express, and the schematron rules of the SBGN languages, as the Java library libSBGN does.
- sbml2cellml0.4.2
libopencor is installed from PyPI with the simulate extra (#54).
- pkpdutils1.3.0
Minor release of pkpdutils which compares the non-compartmental analysis against the public benchmark suite of the NonCompart validation report (#103): all eight scenarios (theophylline and indomethacin, intravenous bolus, 0.25 h infusion and extravascular dose, linear and linear-up / log-down…
- cobrapy0.32.1
fixed import failure when hopsy was not installed
- roadrunnerv2.10.0
Major new capability: variable stoichiometries.
- visfem0.1.0
first working prototype
- tellurium2.2.11.2
Small fix to SED-ML handling of files with paths. SimpleSEDML should now work on Windows.

PK-DB
Pharmacokinetics database
Developed the first FAIR-compliant open database for pharmacokinetics, integrating clinical and pre-clinical trial data. PK-DB enables reproducible PBPK/PD modeling, supports individualized simulations, and has become a key infrastructure for computational pharmacology research.
v0.12.13★ 519 opentodayPythonMIT

pkpdutils
PK/PD analysis in python
Developed a Python library for the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis of timecourses and parameters, from non-compartmental analysis and curve fitting to bioequivalence and meta-analysis. Formerly pkdb_analysis, the analysis toolbox of PK-DB.
1.3.0★ 52 open6 days agoPythonMIT

pkpdbib
PK/PD literature in python
Developed a Python library for working with pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) literature and bibliographies, from retrieving the PDFs of a Zotero export to programmatic access to Zotero libraries. Supports the literature curation of PK-DB and of the PK/PD models built on it.
0.2.1★ 10 open6 days agoPythonMIT


SBML4Humans
SBML simulation made easy
Designed an interactive reporting framework that makes SBML models human-readable and accessible, enabling experts and newcomers to explore model content without technical barriers.
0.12.2★ 213 open6 days agoPythonMIT


sbml2cellml
Conversion between SBML and CellML
Built a bidirectional converter between SBML and CellML 2.0, validating every conversion with libcellml and checking it by simulation against the SBML test suite and the curated BioModels. Lets models move between the two main model description standards instead of being locked into one.
0.4.2★ 10 open6 days agoPythonMIT

sbmlode
Ordinary differential equations of SBML models
Built a Python package that derives the system of ordinary differential equations of an SBML model from its reactions, rules, events and units, and writes it as simulation code for Python, Julia and R, verified against libRoadRunner over the SBML test suite, or as Typst, LaTeX and Markdown documents of the equations. The ODE export of sbmlutils as a package of its own.
0.3.0★ 21 open6 days agoPythonMIT

cysbml
Cytoscape 3 app for the Systems Biology Markup Language
Developed and maintained a widely used Cytoscape app for visualization of SBML models in network contexts. cy3sbml has facilitated intuitive exploration of complex models in systems biology and bioinformatics.
v0.9.0★ 160 open6 days agoJava



roadrunner
High-performance simulator for SBML
Contributed to the development of libRoadRunner, a C/C++ library using LLVM for ultra-fast simulation of SBML models, setting a benchmark for performance in computational biology.
v2.10.0★ 6484 opentodayC++
