title: Stochastic reaction-diffusion simulation with MesoRD.
abstract: MesoRD is a tool for stochastic simulation of chemical reactions and diffusion. In particular, it is an implementation of the next subvolume method, which is an exact method to simulate the Markov process corresponding to the reaction-diffusion master equation.
