Nice tutorial on how to combine BrainGlobe and @BiaPyX to detect cells in whole brain microscopy images. We're always interested in ways to make our software interoperable with other tools. biapy.readthedocs.io/en/late…

We've just released the "brainmapper" widget allowing analysis of cellular distributions in whole-brain microscopy images entirely within @napari_imaging. Full details available on the blog: brainglobe.info/blog/brainma…

As with all BrainGlobe atlases, this can be used for atlas registration, cell detection, segmentation and visualisation, or via the BrainGlobe Atlas API in your own software. See our website (brainglobe.info) and GitHub (github.com/brainglobe) for more details.
