14-12-2020 Mathematical and computational modelling of embryonic development, continuation
This iPre is part of an interdisciplinary project that will study a self-organizing collective of two cell types in the early embryo of annual killifish (see image). We will utilize advanced methods from developmental biology, microscopy, image analysis, and microfabrication to track the behaviour of cells in embryos and in vitro culture, and construct mathematical and computational models of their interactions. Our aim is to understand the principle mechanisms that give rise to self-organized emergent behaviour at multiple scales from molecular, through cellular, tissue and ultimately to whole embryo structure. The aim of the iPre project is to develop mathematical and computational models using: Python, C++ and other programming languages Differential equations and partial differential equations Finite elements Computational geometry

12-12-2019 Development of image segmentation pipeline using AI
Students involved in this project will be develop a segmentation pipeline of microscopy images using various standard image processing methods and Artificial Intelligence implements in various licence free programs (e.g. ImageJ, cell profiler). The scope of the project is to compare the pipelines based on 1) object detection accuracy, 2) computational speed and 3) the ease-of-use.
