Development and Application of a Generative 3D Cell Morphable Model for Blood-Cell Morphodynamics

London Interdisciplinary Biosciences Consortium (LIDo)
This iCASE project addresses a critical bottleneck in blood-cell morphodynamics. high-throughput blood-smear platforms capture large-scale clinical 2D cell images, but the smearing process physically flattens cells onto glass, destroying the 3D nuclear and cellular geometry that encodes mechanics and cell state.
