NeuroPAL Lens

NeuroPAL Lens is a Rust-based application designed to facilitate the visualization and analysis of neurons in Caenorhabditis elegans labeled using the NeuroPAL system. This app enables users to check neuron colors (Ref: 10.1016/j.cell.2020.12.012) and positions (Ref: 10.1186/s12859-022-04738-3).

Features

• NeuronPAL Color: Inspect neuron color labeling using the NeuroPAL system.
• Neuron Position: Verify neuron positions within the organism.
• Web-Based Interface: Access a lightweight, interactive web app.
