Membrane contact sites (MCSs) establish organelle interactomes in cells to enable communication and exchange of materials. Volume EM (vEM) is ideally suited for MCS analyses, but semantic segmentation of large vEM datasets remains challenging. Recent...
OBJECTIVES: Renal biopsy is the gold standard for the diagnosis of glomerular diseases including membranous nephropathy (MN), however, it faces challenges in accuracy, objectivity, and reproducibility of tissue evaluation. This study aims to develop ...
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) plays a crucial role in maintaining brain homeostasis. During ageing, the BBB undergoes structural alterations. Electron microscopy (EM) is the gold standard for studying the structural alterations of the brain vasculatu...
Electron microscopy (EM) has revolutionized our understanding of cellular structures at the nanoscale. Accurate image segmentation is required for analyzing EM images. While manual segmentation is reliable, it is labor-intensive, incentivizing the de...
For decades, electron microscopy has been the primary method to visualize ultrastructural details of the kidney, including podocyte foot processes and the slit diaphragm. Despite its status as the gold standard, electron microscopy has significant li...
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex network of biomolecules that plays an integral role in the structure, processes, and signaling mechanisms of cells and tissues. Identifying and quantifying changes in these matrix components provides insigh...
Semantic segmentation of electron microscopy (EM) images is crucial for nanoscale analysis. With the development of deep neural networks (DNNs), semantic segmentation of EM images has achieved remarkable success. However, current EM image segmentatio...
