• Scientific Description 2D-3D code of finite difference method in C++ to compute the electroquasistatic field in a biological cell, with non-linear model of membrane conductance and lateral diffusion of lipids.

• Functional Description Compute the electroquasistatic field and the porated region of the cell membrane. The aim is to provide a user-friendly code for applied mathematicians and biophysicists.
