Berkeley Madonna is a software program that provides an easy and intuitive environment for graphically building and numerically solving mathematical equations. Our users range from college undergraduates with little or no mathematical experience to academic researchers and professionals building and simulating sophisticated mathematical models that represent complex systems in the biological, chemical, and engineering fields. Here we briefly describe our recent advances including a new Java-based user interface introduced in Version 9 and our transition from a 32-to 64-bit architecture with the release of Version 10. We take the reader through an example tutorial that illustrates how to construct a mathematical model in Berkeley Madonna while highlighting some of the recent changes to the software. Specifically, we construct a standard pharmacokinetic model of the antifungal medication amphotericin B taken from the literature and discuss aspects related to model building, key numerical considerations, data fitting, and graphical visualization. We end by discussing planned functionality and features intended for future releases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
