Multi-parametric analysis and modeling of relationships between mitochondrial morphology and apoptosis.

Mitochondria exist as a network of interconnected organelles undergoing constant fission and fusion. Current approaches to study mitochondrial morphology are limited by low data sampling coupled with manual identification and classification of complex morphological phenotypes. Here we propose an int...
