The Allen Institute announces CellScapes, a new initiative to transform our understanding of how human cells build tissues and organs.
CellScapes will use cutting-edge imaging techniques, experiments, and deep computational modeling to observe, explain, and predict cellular behavior with unparalleled precision and understanding. It will apply a mathematical lens to explain what a cell does (and why it does it) rather than simply describing it. The research will present a holistic view of the human cell in three dimensions, providing a dynamic, living picture instead of a static snapshot in time, narrating the journey of the cell as it develop into tissues and organs essential for life.
CellScapes
The Allen Institute is an independent, 501(c)(3) nonprofit research organization founded by philanthropist and visionary, the late Paul G. Allen. The Allen Institute is dedicated to answering some of the biggest questions in bioscience and accelerating research worldwide. The Institute is a recognized leader in large-scale research with a commitment to an open science model. Its research institutes and programs include the Allen Institute for Brain Science, the Allen Institute for Cell Science, the Allen Institute for Immunology, and the Allen Institute for Neural Dynamics. In 2016, the Allen Institute expanded its reach with the launch of The Paul G. Allen Frontiers Group, which identifies pioneers with new ideas to expand the boundaries of knowledge and make the world better. For more information, visit alleninstitute.org.
