DNA replication is a fundamental cellular process and its precise regulation is crucial for maintaining genomic integrity. Inspired by the mathematical parallelism between DNA replication and the nucleation problem in one-dimensional crystal growth kinetics, we introduce a model that maps whole-genome replication dynamics based on the firing rate profiles of replication origins and fork movement.
