Description

CERENA (ChEmical REaction Network Analyzer) is a MATLAB-based toolbox for the simulation and analysis of chemical reaction networks using approximations of the Chemical Master Equation solution statistics.

CERENA includes a variety of methods for the analysis of stochastic biochemical reaction networks, focusing on mesoscopic and macroscopic descriptions, namely Reaction Rate Equation (RRE), Method of Moments (MM), and System Size Expansion (SSE).

Also, CERENA provides the first implementation of the Method of Conditional Moments (MCM), and offers a wide range of options, amongst others variable truncation orders and different closure schemes.
