Super-Resolution Imaging Paper Published

PLoSCP2015Today, PLoS Computational Biology has published our study, in which we developed a series of analytical routines for the analysis of molecular interactions in super-resolution microscopy images. These analyses include methods to quantify intermolecular interactions and the formation of larger molecular complexes. This was a large project, involving collaborations across multiple faculties at Western University.

In addition to publishing these analytical methods, this study also includes a software package to perform the analyses described in the paper. This software – Molecular Interactions in Super-Resolution (MIiSR) is available for download from PLoS Computational Biology, with updated versions available here at phagocytes.ca.
