BioDynaMo is an International project devoted to promoting a new way of integrating computer simulations, broadly, in biomedical research.  In facts, until yesterday any researcher interested in exploring the implications of her/his conjecture by computer simulations, ahead of experimental design, would struggle to produce her/his own simulation, making design choices finely tuned for her/his purposes, but likely to translate into a barrier for re-uptake of the tool by peers, and that would also require a complete re-engineering should the simulation be successful enough to be interesting to run it at scale, as instance on HPC clusters. Today, BioDynaMo offers a first incarnation of an agent based simulation environment (engine and language) that has already proven to be scalable and easily extensible across domains . The code is licensed under Apache 2.0 as the consortium feels this should be made available to everyone: it is commons in its very meaning, a fertilizer for the mission
