Machine learning predicts the look of stem cells #289

No two stem cells are identical, even if they are genetic clones. This stunning diversity is revealed today in an enormous publicly available online catalogue of 3D stem cell images. The visuals were produced using deep learning analyses and cell lines altered with the gene-editing tool CRISPR. And soon the portal will allow researchers to predict variations in cell layouts that may foreshadow cancer and other diseases.

This would be relevant if there were more details, but for now I don't see any information about the software or deep learning techniques at http://www.allencell.org/ and the code is "coming soon" http://www.allencell.org/software--code.html

More information here, but it still may not be enough detail for us to include.

May be interesting to mention in the single cell section? I'll take a look.

@bdo311 it might also be a good fit in the "Morphological phenotypes" section if you want to include it
