SimBiology Model Builder
Build QSP, PK/PD, and mechanistic systems biology models interactively
Since R2020b
Description
The SimBiology Model Builder app lets you build models of dynamic systems such as quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) models, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) models, and systems biology models interactively. It provides a block diagram editor to build the model reaction schematic by using built-in blocks.
Using the app, you can:
Build a variety of dynamic systems such as metabolic networks, signaling pathways, QSP models, PBPK models, and PK/PD models.
Create standard compartmental PK models from the built-in library.
View your model as a graphical representation or as mathematical equations.
Use variants to store a set of parameter values or initial conditions that are different from the base model configuration.
Create an array of doses to explore different dosing regimens.
Import or export SimBiology® models to and from the MATLAB® workspace or from a Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) file.

Warning
SimBiology projects (SBPROJ) are not forward-compatible. Do not load the projects that you created and saved using SimBiology apps from a newer version (such as R2024a) into an older version (such as R2023a) of the apps.
