Our vision is to facilitate access to complex mathematical models for scientists. The primary application area is biomedicine, but the computational methodologies and software tools have relevance to many other areas of science and technology.Since the start of the center in April 2007, it has been evaluated by the Research Council of Norway and external experts three times (in 2009, 2011 and 2012), and each time been awarded with the highest mark (="Excellent").
