EpiCure is a tool for curating epithelial segmentation errors in 2D movies, improving accuracy and efficiency in single-cell dynamics analysis.

The paper shows that past sublethal caspase activity influences cell elimination decisions in Drosophila, revealing a new layer of apoptosis regulation.

This study shows that patterned apoptosis influences local growth and tissue shape in the Drosophila wing imaginal disc, challenging the assumption that cell death has minimal impact on organ size and morphology.
