The program can currently be accessed in browser at - singlemoleculegroup.github.io/kymosketch-a..., no install required. Just drag and drop your kymos in or use the demo data already there if you want to try. (6/6)

I’ve also added fluorescence intensity analysis, and FRET. I will be adding FRET correction parameters soon, for those who like their FRET efficiencies precise and accurate. (5/6)

Once you have your tracks, you can do diffusion analysis - whole trace MSD, rolling diffusion, or DeepDiffusion - and the results of these can be viewed globally for all tracks, including off-rate analysis taken from trajectory length (4/6)

You can also very easily change colours in kymolab, if you want something more colourblind friendly than RGB. If displaying only one colour you can also use perceptually uniform colourmaps like Viridis (3/6)

It’s split into two halves, kymolab and tracklab. In kymolab you load .h5 filess (from c-trap systems) or TIFF files (from anywhere). You generate sketches (candidate tracks) using a trackspotter or manual drawing, then refine them into finalised tracks by fitting. (2/6)

Whenever I see people talking about how they want to see raw data I can't help but think that everyone means something different when they say raw

Lots of people following me this morning even though so far I have only posted a picture of my cat, so I am raising the stakes and posting TWO cats
