Second paper from my lab, led entirely by summer students! This tool allows speedy and reliable classification of estrous cycle stage from stained images. Check it out and run it yourself from our lab github, or if you’re not into python, you can use the GUI on our site
🆕 in DPN‼️
@anitaautrydixon @rossenator & co @EinsteinMed developed an object detection machine learning tool to identify cell types of the estrous cycle in mice, providing a fast & reliable method for estrous cycle monitoring in neuroscience studies!
