VPH COMMUNITY
Clinicians all over the World expressed trust and agreed in considering the use of Computer Modeling & Simulation accurate enough for clinical applications, but there's still a long way to go for the practical employment of in silico medicine in the clinical practice
In the last two years, a group of 144 experts from academia, industry, and regulatory agencies from all over the world condensed their expertise into a book entitled: “Toward good simulation practice: best practices for the use of computational modelling & simulation in the regulatory process of biomedical products”.
This Glossary is a second release with an extended list of definitions; more concepts will be defined and existing definitions may be adjusted in future updates/releases of this document.
