About this model
*****************
:Original publication: `Kernik et al. (2019)`_:
"A computational model of induced pluripotent stem-cell derived cardiomyocytes
incorporating experimental variability from multiple data sources" J Physiol. 2019 Sep 1; 597(17): 4533-4564.
:DOI: https://dx.doi.org/10.1113%2FJP277724
Model status
**************
The current CellML model implementation runs in OpenCOR_.
Model overview
*****************
This workspace holds CellML_ and Python encoding of the `Kernik et al. (2019)`_
model. The original model developed a whole cell model of
induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs)
composed of simple model components comprising ion channel models. The models were parameterized to fit experimental
iPSC-CM data from multiple laboratories for all major ionic currents.

Modular description
********************
CellML enables the user to divide a model into distinct modules, which can be imported as needed.
The key CellML files of this work are:
- Main file: Channels
- Individual channel file: contain the formulation for calculating each channel's current
- Channel gating formulation files, if applicable
- General parameter file, containing all parameter values used in this model
- Channel-specific parameter file, if present
- Units definition file: unit
For each individual channel, Python is run to recreate the conditions outlined in `Kernik et al. (2019)`_, in order to reproduce the paper's figures. The file loads the SED-ML file and provides the simulation results. and plots the figure.

Simulation settings
*********************
The simulation settings are saved in SED-ML files, which are run through Python.
We use this method to capture the results for different initial conditions and inputs, corresponding to `Kernik et al. (2019)`_.
Each Python script under the Navigation menu reproduces the specified figure from `Kernik et al. (2019)`_.
The name of each scripts corresponds to the Figure number in the Kernik paper.
In order to run the scripts,
execute the following script from the command line:
``$ cd [PathToThisFile]``
``$ [PathToOpenCOR]/pythonshell fig2.py``
This action requires all files to be located within the same folder.
