Analysis of Single-Cell Data ODE Constrained Mixture Modeling and A

Carolin Loos introduces two novel approaches for the analysis of single-cell data. Both approaches can be used to study cellular heterogeneity and therefore advance a holistic understanding of biological processes. The first method, ODE constrained mixtur

Acknowledgements I would like to begin by offering my sincerest gratitude to my supervisor Dr. Jan Hasenauer for his immense support, advice and encouragement, and for truly inspiring my interest in this field of research. I also gratefully acknowledge Dr. Carsten Marr for always taking the time to answer my questions and help me with my problems. Furthermore, I would like to thank the members of the groups Data-driven Computational Modeling and Quantitative Single Cell Dynamics for their feedback, explanations and interesting discussions. I am highly indebted to Prof. Dr. Dr. Fabian Theis for giving me the opportunity to work on this interesting project at the ICB. It was a pleasure to explore this fascinating field of research and to write my thesis in such an inspiring working environment. Last, but not least, I would like to thank my family and friends f
