Three theses defended in Applied Physics

Congratulations to three students from the Laboratory of Systems Biology who defended their theses in TalTech's Applied Physics programme between 3 and 5 June.

Cärolin Grahv defended her master's thesis, A Bayesian approach for super-resolution microscopy image reconstruction. Supervised by Martin Laasmaa and Marko Vendelin, her work developed and evaluated a Bayesian model for locating fluorescent emitters in single-molecule localization microscopy images, comparing it with a frequentist approach.

Janeli Kaelep defended her bachelor's thesis, Mitochondrial arrangement in cardiac muscle cell of creatine deficient mice. Supervised by Marko Vendelin, her work investigated how mitochondria are arranged in heart muscle cells from creatine-deficient mice.

Ralf Magnus Palmiste defended his bachelor's thesis, Mathematical modelling of cardiomyocyte calcium dynamics in creatine-deficient mice. Supervised by Martin Laasmaa, his work adapted a mouse cardiomyocyte model to investigate changes in calcium dynamics associated with creatine deficiency.

We congratulate Cärolin, Janeli, and Ralf, and wish them every success in their future work.
