Cancer is a hard disease to control because of its ability to spread to different parts of the body. Cancer cells can spread out from a primary tumor to distant organs which gives rise to new cancer cell colonies and more tumors over time. This process is known as metastasis...
We developed an integration-based line detection algorithm. Existing line detection methods such as the Hough Transformation (HT) and its variants are insensitive to image noise. The reason is that HT finds lines by calculating the gradient of the image and assumes that the region where the gradient is the steepest...
- Collagen fibers are found in 25% of the whole body
protein content. They are highly adhesive to cells and
can be used as scaffold proteins that can promote cell
growth and be used to capture cells.
- In our lab, we use collagen to capture cancer cells in
order...
Aging is known to be affected by many factors such as nutrition and exercise, and more studies are needed to understand the mechanisms of aging. Aging in flies shows many similarities with humans; therefore we study mechanisms of aging in flies as a model organism. Studying aging in flies requires...
