Quantitative imaging in biology
- Submission status
- Open
- Submission deadline
Quantitative imaging in biology is a rapidly growing field that uses various imaging techniques to measure and analyze biological systems. This approach involves the use of advanced computational tools and statistical analysis to extract quantitative data from images, including fluorescent microscopy, confocal microscopy, and electron microscopy. These data can be used to study a wide range of biological processes, such as cell growth, division, and differentiation, as well as tissue organization and function. Quantitative imaging is essential for advancing our understanding of complex biological systems and has important applications in medicine, drug development, and biotechnology.
This Collection aims at showcasing the latest advances in biological science using quantitative imaging approaches.
