Announcing StochSS Live!

Welcome to the Stochastic Simulation Service: the accessible platform for modeling biochemical systems. StochSS offers a simple web interface for simulating stochastic and ODE-based biochemical systems with the option to dig deeper through an integrated Jupyter notebook interface.

StochSS Live is a complete rewrite of the system. The new service unlocks the power of GillesPy2 for advanced hybrid ODE/stochastic simulations and support for importing SBML models. StochSS Live also uses SpatialPy (beta) in the notebook interface for 3D stochastic and ODE simulation. Machine learning inference capabilities and large-scale parameter sweeps are supported in the jupyter notebook interface with the sciope library. Head to the About page for more details on the features of StochSS Live.
