ASAP is committed to accelerating the pace of discovery and informing a path to a cure for Parkinson’s disease through collaboration, research-enabling resources, and data sharing. We’ve created this catalog to showcase the research outputs and tools developed by ASAP-funded programs.

Code

Manual Tracking/image_prep.ijm

A script to register 2-channel timelapse images using HyperStackReg, using only 1 of the channels to compute transformation. The script also enhances contrast and prepares the image for manual tracking.

Code

Manual Tracking/tracking.ijm

A script to store in ImageJ’s ROImanager the tracks generated using Manual Tracking plugin, for later use (drawing tracks, frame-by-frame analysis). To be used as a continuation of 1_image_prep.ijm.

Code

Manual Tracking/measure_ECM.ijm

A script to generate circular ROIs in each frame of a timelapse, using a previously generated track as reference. Used to measure fluorescence intensity (i.e., extracellular matrix content) along a microglia track. To be used as a continuation of 2_tracking.ijm.
