LSFMs produce large high-resolution 3D+t datasets; and when they are used to image organisms transfused with histone-GFP fusion protein, it is possible to obtain information about the migration of cells in the developing organism. However, any 3D microscopy technique suffers from reduced resolution due to scattering, especially at higher depths within the image—which confounds cell identification and tracking. We discuss methods to recover cell positions from greater z-depths of the microscope image; present a simple multiscale blob-based tracking strategy; and then discuss statistics that can be performed on the space of trajectories once they are computed.<br class=""><br class=""></div><div class="" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><div class=""><div class=""><b class="">Advisors:</b> <span class="" style="font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;">Yali Amit</span></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><b class="">Committee Members:</b> <span class="" style="font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;">Yali Amit, Victoria Prince, and Eric Jonas</span></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div></div></div><div class="">
