Modlling and Simulation project

Universite Paris-Saclay, 2025 This repository contains the code and documentation for the Modelling and Simulation project at Université Paris-Saclay. The project focuses on the development of mathematical models in biology, in here replicating a paper that have modelled tumor growth and immune interaction using agent-based modelling.

"An agent-based model of avascular tumor growth: Immune response tendency to prevent cancer development" ¹

Tumor growth	Tumor-immune interaction

You'll find the report in docs folder.

Models are implemented in NetLogo and found in the models folder. The models are:

• tumor_growth.nlogo: A model of tumor growth
• tumor_immune.nlogo: A model of tumor-immune interaction
• tumor_growth_contribution.nlogo: small contribution added
• tumor_immune_contribution.nlogo: small contribution added
