UN-biased high-Resolution Analysis and Validation of Ensembles using Light sheet images
=======================================================================================
* UNRAVEL is a `Python `_ package & command line tool for the analysis of brain-wide imaging data, automating:
* Registration of brain-wide images to a common atlas space
* Quantification of cell/label densities across the brain
* Voxel-wise analysis of fluorescent signals and cluster correction
* Validation of hot/cold spots via cell/label density quantification at cellular resolution
* Integration of brain-wide maps with cell type and gene expression data from the Allen Brain Cell Atlas (ABCA)
* `UNRAVEL GitHub repository `_
* `Initial UNRAVEL publication `_
* UNRAVEL was developed by `the Heifets lab `_ and `TensorAnalytics `_
* Additional support/guidance was provided by:
* `The Shamloo lab `_
* `The Malenka lab `_
* `The Stanford-based P50 center funded by NIDA `_

* `ANTsPy `_
* `Ilastik `_
* `nibabel `_
* `numpy `_
* `scipy `_
* `pandas `_
