title: 'golden: Framework for Patient-Level Microsimulation of Risk Factor Trajectories
  & Hazard-Based Events'
version: 0.0.4
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.golden
abstract: Fast, flexible, patient-level microsimulation. Time-stepped simulation with
  a 'C++' back-end from user-supplied initial population, trajectories, hazards, and
  corresponding event transitions. User-defined aggregate time series histories are
  returned together with the final population. Designed for simulation of chronic
  diseases with continuous and evolving risk factors, but could easily be applied
  more generally.
