Abstract

In this work, we introduce a new software created to study hematopoiesis at the cellpopulation level with the individually based approach. It can be used as an interface between theoreticalworks on population dynamics and experimental observations. We show that this softwarecan be useful to study some features of normal hematopoiesis as well as some blood diseases suchas myelogenous leukemia. It is also possible to simulate cell communication and the formation ofcell colonies in the bone marrow.
