Shannon Quinn - Python for Public Health: Building Statistical Models of Ciliary Motion

Speaker: Shannon Quinn Cilia, microscopic hairs lining nearly every cell surface in your body, play a major role in developmental and sinopulmonary health. As such, deriving quantitative properties of their motion is compelling for both clinical and research purposes. Here we demonstrate a computational pipeline built entirely in Python for analyzing ciliary motion using a variety of machine learning techniques.
