iTumor was created to promote simulations of mathematical modeling by the Vanderbilt Integrative Cancer Biology Center. Mathematical modeling is one of the approaches of the Center to decipher cancer invasion. These simulations can take hours, even days to complete, making them unfit for web posting.

We implemented a Drupal website, and we used pre-run simulations, flash conversion, and forms to allow users to navigate different model parameters and instantly see the results.

iTumor is now integrated into the Center for Cancer Systems Biology at Vanderbilt (CCSB@V).
