To explore and understand cell membrane compositions, dynamics and processes, visual analytics can help to interpret MD simulation data. APL@Voro is a software for the interactive visualization and analysis of cell membrane simulations. Here, we present the new APL@Voro, which has been continuously developed since its initial release in 2013. We discuss newly implemented algorithms, methodologies and features, such as the interactive comparison of related simulations and methods to assign lipids to either the upper or lower leaflet.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Availability and implementation<\/jats:title><jats:p>The current open-source version of APL@Voro can be downloaded from http:\/\/aplvoro.com.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btad083","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,7]],"date-time":"2023-02-07T23:27:07Z","timestamp":1675812427000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["APL@voro\u2014interactive visualization and analysis of cell membrane simulations"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Martin","family":"Kern","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer and Information Science, University of Konstanz , Konstanz 76484, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sabrina","family":"Jaeger-Honz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer and Information Science, University of Konstanz , Konstanz 76484, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9307-3254","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Falk","family":"Schreiber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Computer and Information Science, University of Konstanz , Konstanz 76484, Germany"},{"name":"Faculty of Information Technology, Monash University , Clayton, VIC 3800, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1514-9898","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bjorn","family":"Sommer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Royal College of Art, School of Design , London SW7 2EU, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023022713393072200_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"19","DOI":"10.1016\/j.softx.2015.06.001","article-title":"GROMACS: high performance molecular simulations through multi-level parallelism from laptops to supercomputers","volume":"1","author":"Abraham","year":"2015","journal-title":"SoftwareX"},{"key":"2023022713393072200_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1952","DOI":"10.1002\/jcc.21172","article-title":"GridMAT-MD: a grid-based membrane analysis tool for use with molecular dynamics","volume":"30","author":"Allen","year":"2009","journal-title":"J.
