Workshop on Implementation of FAIR PBK models in SBML using Antimony
PARC organised an in-person workshop on the Implementation of FAIR PBK Models in SBML using Antimony, which took place from 7 to 8 October 2024 in Bilthoven, The Netherlands, under the scientific coordination of Anne Zwartsen (RIVM). The course focused on the translation of physiologically based kinetic (PBK) models into SBML format using Antimony, with an emphasis on good modelling practice, harmonisation, and semantic annotation. Participants received both theoretical guidance and practical support, including the opportunity to translate their own models during the workshop.
Training content
• Reminder on developing FAIR PBK models and applying good practices
• Guidance on translating PBK models into SBML using Antimony
• Introduction to relevant software tools and packages
• Training on model harmonisation and semantic annotation
• Support in translating a basic model and in translating participants' own models
Target audience
The course was specifically intended for researchers working on tasks 6.2.2 and 6.2.3 of PARC, who are developing PBK models in R for use in T6.2 case studies.
Practical details
The workshop was free of charge, but participants covered their own travel, accommodation, and personal expenses. Applications for this training are now closed.
Training Highlights
Training materials developed and used during the training were not made publicly available, but you can find other related training resources in the PARC Repository of Learning and Educational Materials.
