% This function runs the spatial model with growth-independent diffusion
% coefficient for yeast cells, growth-dependent toxin production rate and 3D toxin
% diffusion. This code was used to generate the model simulations reported
% in Fig. 7 supplement 1D. The initial conditions are idealized and do not
% reflect experimental intial conditions
