Image analysis of collective cell migration in epithalial and cancer cells

Keywords:
computación image processing Mechanobiology cancer collective migration wound healing

Key characteristics of wound healing and cancer metastasis are migration of multiple cells with more or less degree of coordination (collective migration). In this project, we collected movies (time-lapses) of various types of cancer migrating on substrates of different mechanical properties. We are looking for students to develop and apply image analysis pipelines to analyze the time lapses. Analysis is done using a combination of computational tool that involve ImageJ (image registration, drift correction), MatLab (particle image velocimetry) and Phyton (statistical analysis and plotting). The student will have the opportunity to aid high-impact science in a dynamic and international environment.
