organdim
Organdim is a fictional model used in speculative biology and science communication to describe a modular, multi-scale framework for simulating organ development and function. In this concept, an organ is composed of domain modules representing tissue regions, with individual cell agents and signaling networks that interact with mechanical properties and fluid flow. The model emphasizes the connection between cellular rules and organ-scale morphology, enabling demonstrations of how alterations in signaling, mechanics, or growth can influence shape, size, and performance.
Origins and scope of the concept vary by author, but organdim is commonly presented as a teaching
Architecture and core ideas typically feature: modular organ domains that can be recombined; agent-based cellular behavior
Note: organdim is presented here as a hypothetical framework for illustrative purposes and is not a widely
