The Simularium Viewer: an interactive online tool for sharing spatiotemporal biological models
​
The Simularium Viewer makes it easy to share and interrogate interactive 3D visualizations of biological simulation trajectories and related plots directly in a web browser. ā€‹Its primary goal is to facilitate collaborations among experimental and computational biologists by removing major challenges to sharing, accessing, and comparing simulation results.

In addition to step-by-step instructions, the protocol provides:
  • endorsement (authorship) by 36 people representing research institutions, academia, and industry from around the world.
  • a link to a public database with measurements made by members of the authorship group and to which you can contribute by uploading your own measurements. 
  • a link to a GitHub repository with scripts to automate the measurements with some scopes and power meters.
  • links to tutorial videos.

Thank you for attending the sixth annual Seattle Cell Science Symposium!

The 2022 Symposium was hosted virtually and featured two half-days of presentations from leaders in the field of cell biology. The overarching theme of the event was "Data integration from multiomics to imaging".

Presentations highlighted new technologies that combine high throughput imaging and omics data to create a multifaceted perspective of cell biology and that contribute to understanding cell states and identities in a spatiotemporal manner.

Each day also included a panel discussion on the future of the field and team talks from the Allen Institute for Cell Science.

Thank you for attending our 3D Cell Visualization Tools webinar

10/20/2021

 
Thanks for joining us for the webinar: Visualizing 3D cellular images and simulations: learn about AGAVE, Cell Feature Explorer, and Simularium
The webinar occurred on Tuesday, October 19, 2021 at 10AM PT
In this webinar we described our open-source visualization software, Advanced GPU Accelerated Volume Explorer (AGAVE), which can be downloaded to use on your image files. We also showed how you can explore, sort, and download our imaging data in our Cell Feature Explorer for your own modeling, analysis, or machine learning tasks. In addition, we showed you how you can explore cell models in our online Simularium, a tool to share, visualize, and interrogate biological simulations.

New manuscript published in Cell Systems

Cell states beyond transcriptomics: Integrating structural organization & gene expression in hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes
A team of scientists at the Allen Institute for Cell Science recently published a manuscript in Cell Systems investigating the relationship between cell organization and gene expression in over 30,000 single cells. In this study, the team studied heart muscle cells generated from human stem cells, and developed a method to automatically classify how organized the contractile machinery in single cells was. When they compared this to expression levels of key cardiac developmental genes, they found very little correlation, suggesting that a cell’s state cannot be determined by either measurement alone. This manuscript was featured on the cover of Cell Systems for the 5-year anniversary special edition and highlighted in the corresponding editorial. Read more about the project here. ​
