High Throughput 3D Electron Microscopy
Exploiting recent advances in automated 3D EM to provide a large reference collection of fully reconstructed brain cells and neurites (and their subcellular constituents) in the vicinity of amyloid plaques.

Deep Learning-based Automatic Image Segmentation
Leveraging powerful deep learning-based approaches to rigorously and quantitatively extract detailed information about inter-organelle associations and cytoskeletal reorganization associated with neuronal degeneration of the type found in AD.
