SMS: Simulating Microbial Systems

Summary

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) aims to create generalizable and comprehensive computational simulations to predict the behavior of individual Escherichia coli by bringing together multiple state-of-the-art research communities.

Simulations will feature predictions of general properties and behavior and tailored forecasts of bacteria function in various user-defined scenarios.

This program also brings to bear innovative high-throughput experimental workflows for measuring aspects of bacteria. Data will be used to both train and validate simulation software, and aims to massively benefit future research.

Innovations to simulate and measure E. coli will inform one another and accelerate progress towards the ultimate goal – a generalizable and comprehensive simulation software platform to predict E. coli behavior.
