NCDSim – A Simulation Model for the Future Development of Non-Communicable Diseases

Listen

This report documents the NCDSim simulation model, a tool for analysing and projecting future morbidity in cancer and cardiovascular disease and how it is influenced by various modifiable risk factors.

The model was developed as part of a collaboration between the Public Health Agency of Sweden, the Swedish Cancer Society, and the Heart-Lung Foundation.

The source code can be downloaded from github, along with the data and assumption files required to run simulations.
