Was incredible to work with Arushi during her summer internship - check out her preprint showing that single cell representation learning methods for microscopy can be confounded by cells in the background of their inputs!

Deep learning models are widely used to extract feature representations from microscopy images. While these models are used for single-cell analyses, such as studying single-cell heterogeneity, they t...
