R Speaks NLME (RsNLME)

Open source flexibility for population PK/PD modeling

Advanced population PK/PD modeling made simple

With PopPK analysis now a standard requirement for regulatory submissions and expected by the FDA, scientists need flexible tools to streamline population PK/PD modeling. By integrating the Certara NLME engine directly into the R command line, RsNLME delivers unmatched flexibility and efficiency for pharmacometric workflows, and now connects to AI assistants through MCP for an even faster path from data to model.
Whether you’re a novice or an advanced user, RsNLME equips you with the software and resources to elevate your modeling capabilities, including educational guides, tutorials, and demonstration vignettes.

Enables flexible and seamless model workflow

Allows users to define models without in-depth knowledge of underlying code

Reduces time spent performing analyses

Connects your AI assistant directly to the NLME engine

Your AI assistant now speaks NLME

RsNLME connects to AI assistants through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), so your assistant can build, run, and diagnose NLME models directly using the Certara NLME engine. It follows established pharmacometric best practices at every step, from proposing a column mapping to planning a covariate search and producing goodness of fit and VPC diagnostics. You describe the modeling goal in plain language, and the assistant carries out the work, keeping you in control of every decision.

Connects to AI assistants through MCP for plain language model building
Fully compatible with Phoenix WinNonlin® and Phoenix® NLME models
Provides R tidyverse based syntax for streamlined model manipulation
