Simulating The Interactions And Migration Of Multicellular Tissues And Synthetic Image Generation

This summer I worked with Dr. Leah Edelstein-Keshet, MSc student Dhananjay Bhaskar, and PhD student Cole Zmurchok on two major projects: simulating GTPase dynamics in cells, and generating synthetic images of cells based on real microscopy cell images. Results from both projects will be submitted for publication in the near future. In this report I will give a brief overview of both projects, describe the technical work that I had done, and present some of the results we obtained. More detailed descriptions of these projects are available at request through [email protected].
