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.
