COPASI is a widely used software tool for modeling, simulation, and analysis of biochemical reaction networks. Compatible with all major operating systems, it supports a wide range of computational methods, including deterministic and stochastic simulations, steady state analysis, optimization, sensitivity analysis, and more. As computational modeling becomes increasingly central to systems biology, biotechnology, and quantitative life sciences, COPASI continues to evolve with new features that enhance usability, interoperability, and analytical power.
This tutorial offers an introduction to COPASI by outlining the concepts behind its graphical user interface. It begins with a high-level overview of the interface, as well as the model and task structure. The tutorial then explains the process of building models in COPASI. Time course simulation, steady-state analysis, plotting, and reporting are covered next. Finally, we cover interoperability with other modeling tools.
The workshop is suitable for beginners who want a guided introduction to COPASI.
