Description

In vitro colonies of the flagellated parasite Trypanosoma brucei exhibit characteristic fingering instability patterns. To enable data-driven and data-validated mechanistic modelling of these complex growth processes, it is crucial to first establish appropriate quantitative metrics beyond qualitative image comparisons. We present a quantification approach based on two scale-free metrics designed to characterize the shape of two-dimensional colonies.
