Shining a spotlight on polyploid cells: New tool uncovers spatial patterns of DNA content across tissues
Phys.org • 12/2/2025 – 12/14/2025
Summary
Researchers from the Max Planck Institute, Duke University, and Cornell University have developed a new computational pipeline that allows for the high-throughput quantification of ploidy across tissues using microscopy images, according to Phys.org. This tool aims to enhance the understanding of spatial patterns of DNA content in various biological contexts.
