Abstract
This paper presents PhysiBoSS 2.0, a hybrid agent-based modeling framework that integrates Boolean modeling of intracellular signaling with agent-based modeling of multicellular systems. It's a redesigned and reimplemented version of PhysiBoSS 1.0, designed as a PhysiCell add-on for improved maintainability and flexibility. PhysiBoSS 2.0 allows for customized models, substrate internalization submodels, and detailed simulation parameter control. Accompanying it is PCTK, a Python package for processing simulation outputs. The authors demonstrate its application in studying drug effects and synergies in cancer models, validated against experimental data.
