Congratulations to Walsh Lab members Linghao Hu and Daniela de Hoyos, as well as our collaborators Yuanjiu Lei and A. Phillip West (Jackson Laboratory) on our publication in APL Bioengineering, “3D convolutional neural networks predict cellular metabolic pathway use from fluorescence lifetime decay data“. In this paper, we show how label-free autofluroescence lifetime imaging of …
Congratulations to Nianchao Wang, on the successful defense of his Master’s Thesis. His project was to develop a method to compare instance segmentation results, so that different image segmentation algorithms can be quantitatively compared. If you’re interested in learning more about his work, it is published in PlosOne:
The Walsh Lab was busy at SPIE Photonics West this January. Four members of the lab attended, Oscar Benavides, Alex Walsh, Elizabeth Bullard, and Blanche ter Hofstede. Keep an eye out for the online publication of our presentations and proceedings papers! Paper 12827-30PLμTO: a polarized light-sheet microscopy and tomography system for versatile multi-scale and high-throughput …
We have a new publication (https://doi.org/10.3389/fbioe.2023.1293268) on our work related to autofluorescence lifetime microscopy for imaging cellular metabolism. In this paper, we define NAD(P)H and FAD fluorescence lifetime changes with perturbations to inhibit or enhance the metabolic pathways of glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, and glutaminolysis. Additionally, we develop and test conventional feature-based machine learning models to …
