abstract = {The temporal and spatial resolution in the microscopy of
tissues has increased significantly within the last years,
yielding new insights into the dynamics of tissue
development and the role of single cells within it. Still,
the theoretical description of the connection of single cell
processes to macroscopic tissue reorganisations is lacking.
Especially in tumour development, single cells play a
crucial role in the advance of tumour properties. We
developed a simulation framework that can model tissue
development up to the centimetre scale with micrometre
resolution of single cells. Through parallelisation, it
enables the efficient use of high-performance computing
systems, therefore enabling detailed simulations on 10.000s
of cores. Our generalised tumour model respects adhesion
driven cell migration, cell-to-cell signalling, and
mutation-driven tumour heterogeneity. We scan the response
of the tumour development depending on division inhibiting
substances such as cytostatic agents. Furthermore, we are
investigating the interaction with radiotherapy to find a
suitable therapy plan. Currently, the emergence of
ever-more-powerful experimental techniques such as light
sheet microscopy already offers unprecedented subcellular
insight into tissue dynamics. Combined with powerful machine
learning techniques, such large data sets (TB’s +) can be
effectively evaluated promising realistic parameters for our
simulations for topics ranging from cancer development to
embryogenesis or morphogenesis with considerable impact both
for basic science and applied biomedical fields.},
