Developing AI programs to measure the morphology of cancer cells
Project Description
Cancer cells undergo significant morphological changes during epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The changes allow the cancer cells to become a more migratory and mesenchymal-like state. Thus, detecting morphological changes of cancer cells is essential for cancer research. In this project, we will develop AI programs to study measure the morphology of cancer cells using the images of breast cancer cells. Then, we will apply to other cancer cells.
