New image-based cellular profiling tool peers deeply into metabolic biology

Broad Institute

It then extracts features from images of stained cells and creates cellular profiles, categorizing cells based on patterns (often imperceptible to the human eye) that they share with other cells, which directly inform disease biology. “That teaches us far more than looking for just a single informative data point.”

CellProfiler takes feature data extracted from Cell Painting-based images and creates cellular profiles, categorizing cells based on patterns (often imperceptible to the human eye) that they share with other cells. Typically, studying drug therapies is an expensive and time-consuming undertaking.
