Building on the CellOrganizer framework, the work learns models of cell geometry, organelle morphology, and spatial distribution directly from fluorescence microscopy images — and introduces temporal modeling to capture how cellular organization evolves dynamically.</p> <hr> <h2 id="what-the-thesis-covers">What the Thesis Covers</h2> <p>The thesis addresses a core challenge in computational cell biology: how to represent the spatial organization of a cell in a form that is both statistically rigorous and practically useful for downstream simulation. Key contributions include:</p>
