@stevenstrogatz I read about this in your amazing book Synk. Lovely to see how they actually look like! These letters truly represent a "singular" moment in mathematical biology!!
Thanks to all co-authors, labs, and collaborators! ForSys is free & open source. Find the detailed usage description in the Protocol (https://t.co/f6CtJShR2b) and the code, example notebooks & full docs here: https://t.co/MZYX7bogcR Happy inferring! 🫧🔬
Scripting is also easy! Load your images into Frame objects, then pass them to ForSys: import forsys as fs → build frames{} per timepoint → forsys = fs.ForSys(frames) and then infer. Works for both experimental 🔬 and in silico 💻 data!

@stevenstrogatz@ManilSuri Thanks for sharing, @stevenstrogatz ! Everything in this post is so refreshing! A lot of people attending to an event about philosophy of mathematics!! and in a public library!!
Would you like to run our Cellular Potts Model (#CPM) of neuromast regeneration in #zebrafish? It is now available in the amazing #Morpheus repository:

Thrilled to share this adventure on how zebrafish elongates its notochord! 🐟 Kudos to Carlos Camacho de la Macorra and @BenSteventon2 for leading it. @CeccarelliAS and I had so much fun modelling & uncovering unexpected predictions...

Our Mathematician of the Day is Daniel Bernoulli a Dutch-born member of the Swiss mathematical family. His most important work considered the basic properties of fluid flow, pressure, density and velocity, and gave the Bernoulli principle.

The article shows that regeneration of a key part of the sensory nervous system in zebrafish can be achieved by a mechanism compatible with local control. Please get in touch if you have any questions!

Our results show that the tissue-wide regenerative response of the neuromast is consistent with a delayed proliferation switch modulated by the the number of neighbors.

Comparison of the model simulations with experiments on regenerating neuromasts previously subjected to laser ablation suggests that our hypothetical proliferation switches are a robust mechanism of regeneration control.

We parameterized the CPM using our recent estimates of cell-cell interactions within the neuromast using our new method of Mechanical Stress Inference ForSys!

Interestingly, these interactions allow the integrity of the organ to be maintained.

Curious about how to achieve organ-wide #regeneration through locally controlled cell proliferation? Check out our latest computational adventure addressing this problem in the #neuromast within the #zebrafish lateral line.
