The Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) is a computer-readable format for representing models of biochemical reaction networks in software. It's applicable to models of metabolism, cell-signaling, and many others. SBML has been evolving since mid-2000 thanks to an international community of software developers and users. This website is the portal for the global SBML development effort; here you can find information about all aspects of SBML.
For the curious
What is SBML? Read our basic introduction and then perhaps browse the mailing lists to get a sense for what's currently going on in the world of SBML.
For modelers
Are you looking for ready-to-run software that supports SBML? Take a look at our SBML Software Guide.
Are you instead looking for ready-to-use models? Visit the BioModels Database, where you can find hundreds of tried and tested models.
For software developers
Are you interested in developing SBML support for your software? Read our basic introduction and then the SBML specifications to understand how to use SBML. After that, you may want to look at libSBML, an API library supporting many programming languages.
Whether you use SBML as a modeler or a developer, we invite you to sign up for news updates either through our RSS feed or one of the mailing lists, and get involved with community efforts to help keep SBML improving. You can also call attention to your project's support of SBML by displaying the SBML logo.
None of this would be possible without the support of multiple agencies and organizations. Visit our acknowledgements page to learn about the visionary funding agencies that have backed SBML over the years.
