Session

Presentation Session 2

My group has been using machine learning techniques (convolutional neural networks) to perform image segmentation and analysis on microscope images from the Combs group (UND) and the Wilkinson group (NDSU). The datasets include time series images of MDA-MB-231 and PC3 cell cultures in 2D at various densities, as well as co-cultures of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells and pre-treated macrophages. I will discuss what we were able to achieve and the difficulties we faced.
