Join us for this seminar by Heba Sailem (King's College London) as part of the North West Seminar Series in Mathematical Biology and Data Sciences. Details of the full series can be found here https://www.cms.livjm.ac.uk/APMSeminar/
The talk will be hosted via zoom, please contact carl.whitfield@manchester.ac.uk or mudassar.iqbal@manchester.ac.uk for the zoom link, or sign up to the mailing list.
Abstract: Multicellular organisation requires the coordination of multiple signalling pathways that regulate cell shape as well as cell-cell and cell-microenvironment interactions. Such coordination is often lost in cancer resulting in changes in tissue architecture, uncontrolled growth, and metastasis. Imaging technologies provide a powerful approach to simultaneously study the signalling and organisational state of cells. I will discuss the development of machine learning and computer vision methodologies for automated identification of genetic programmes underlying tissue organisation. I will also discuss our contribution to data visualisation of bioimage data.
