We describe the Toolkit for Automated Microtubule Tracking (TAMiT), which automatically detects, optimizes, and tracks fluorescent microtubules in living yeast cells with sub-pixel accuracy. TAMiT detects linear and curved polymers using a geometrical scanning technique.

Congratulations to Saad Ansari for successfully defending his PhD thesis today.

We develop a computational model of fission-yeast mitosis using a course-grained Brownian Dynamic framework in conjunction with a force-dependent kinetic Monte Carlo algorithm to replicate the biorientation and segregation of chromosomes.

Saad Ansari presented his work on mechanisms of bidirectional transport of misaligned chromosomes at the Biophysical Society’s 63rd Annual Meeting held in Baltimore, MD.

Saad Ansari and Jeffrey Moore presented posters on their work at the EMBO Microtubule meeting in Heidelberg.

Saad Ansari will attend the Computational Image Analysis in Cellular and Developmental Biology at the Woods Hole MBL in October.

Physics PhD student Saad Ansari has joined the group. Welcome!
