The research community events leading to the formation of the Committee on Credible Practice of Modeling and Simulation in Healthcare. The mission of the Interagency Modeling and Analysis Group and the Multiscale Modeling Consortium [9] is to share novel methodologies to cross spatial and temporal scales in biomedical, biological and behavioral systems, by promoting model reproducibility and reuse [26]. To achieve this goal, the end user must be first convinced to use each model through evaluating transparent credible practice rules for modeling and simulation, carried out by each modeler
