Wellcome Trust Optical Biology PhD student @ UCL in the Wong Lab // interested in mechanotransduction and dynamic signalling in morphogenesis
We include example pipelines for:
🐟 migrating zebrafish pLLP
🐟 zebrafish neuromast drift correction
🐣 chick Hensen’s node (pictured)
All easy to adapt to your own system.

The core idea is simple:
DySTrack lets you keep using Zeiss/Nikon software for acquisition while running any Python image analysis you want in the loop.
It watches prescans -> runs your analysis -> updates stage coords automatically.

Pleased to say that Jonas Hartmann (bs-less) and I have finally released DySTrack (“diss track”) - Dynamic Sample Tracking.

It’s a Python-based, modular tool that brings smart microscopy to everyday imaging on commercial systems.

My timely return to social media - just ahead of something fun we’re releasing next week! Until then here’s a movie of the zebrafish pLLP migrating past motor neurons and under the spinal cord as a teaser.

Thought I was being really novel when I designed and 3D printed this mold for zebrafish transplants based on the microinjection one, but found out today it already exists…
