Joanna Pylvänäinen @jwpylvanainen.bsky.social Hanna Grobe and Guillaume Jacquemet @guijacquemet.bsky.social present their practical guidelines for data exploration in quantitative cell biology. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/... #OpenAccess
Here, we show data exploration and visualization for an experiment comparing the number of filopodia in control cells with that in cells treated with siRNA targeting TLNRD1. (A) HUVECs expressing Lifeact–RFP under control or experimental conditions. Cells were fixed, stained with DAPI and imaged using spinning disk confocal microscopy. Representative maximal intensity projections of fields of view are shown. Scale bar: 20 µm. Images were acquired as part of a previously published study (Ball et al., 2024). (B) Schematic of the wide data format, where data relating to the number of filopodia counted in each condition are stored across columns, making data more challenging to manipulate for downstream analyses. (C) Schematic of the tidy data format, where each variable (e.g. condition, filopodia count, repeat) is stored in a single column, and each observation occupies a row. This organization enables flexible data wrangling, statistical analysis and direct input into visualization tools such as box plots and heatmaps. (D) The number of filopodia per GFP-positive cell as shown in A was manually quantified across all conditions (four biological repeats, >60 fields of view per condition). Results are presented as box plots, where horizontal lines mark the median, boxes represent the interquartile range, and vertical whiskers extend to data points within 1.5× the interquartile range above and below the third and first quartiles, respectively. Dot plots showing each biological replicate uniquely color-coded are also presented as part of a SuperPlot (Lord et al., 2020) to visualize variability in the data. Importantly, the tidy data format was required to make this plot. (E) Pairwise condition comparisons using heatmaps. Three mirrored heatmaps, one displaying the effect size (Cohen's d values) and two displaying the statistical significance (P-values from randomization tests with and without Bonferroni correction). The plots in D and E were generated using Plot-Stats.

In their Essay, @jwpylvanainen.bsky.social, @guijacquemet.bsky.social and @lankylaste.bsky.social outline their practical recommendation for developing image analysis software for life science applications. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...
Schematic of recommendations for user-friendly software development. The process of creating user-friendly software is divided into three phases, which contribute to a streamlined development process, enhancing usability and accessibility. The identified phases include: (1) software development, focused on identifying the problem and assessing the landscape, prior to defining software requirements; (2) user-friendliness evaluation to ensure ease of installation, use and maintenance; and (3) knowledge dissemination, centred on adequate documentation, distribution of the software and adoption of the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reproducible) principles.
