We are pleased to announce DOTcvpSB, a Matlab toolbox
for advanced optimization in systems biology.

Software and documentation available at:
http://www.iim.csic.es/~dotcvpsb/

DOTcvpSB facilitates the statement and solution of
dyamic optimization (optimal control) problems related
with biological systems, modelled with ODEs (although
arbitrary black-box models can be handled as well).
The toolbox can import SBML models for the dynamics via
the SBMLtoolbox.

Examples of problems provided with the toolbox:
- optimal drug infusion to a patient
- minimization of intracellular oscillations
- bioreactor optimization

DOTcvpSB is described in the following paper:
