Examples of open research practices

Open Methods: Nousias, Zacharaki and Moustakas (2020) present AVATREE (https://gitlab.com/LungModelling/avatree), an open-source toolbox in C++ which is a computational modelling framework that generates Anatomically Valid Airway Tree conformations that allows simulations on broncho-constriction in obstructive pulmonary conditions (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0230259). It also allows visualisation of spatial probability maps for airway generations projected on CT imaging data and airway tree based on local structure properties. It can be used to simulate broncho-constrictions apparent in pulmonary diseases such as asthma with the aim of improving clinical decision making.
