The software enables the user to acquire membrane kinetics data of cell contractility during contraction-relaxation cycles through image capture and a dense optical flow algorithm. Both method and software were developed using multidisciplinary knowledge, which resulted in a robust data extraction protocol.<\/p><p>CW is free and open-source, distributed under the terms of the

I seek to understand the principles of how protein folds into its unique three-dimensional structure. Recently, I also became interested in intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) that fold upon binding to its partner protein in order to function. Understanding structure formation and stability of biological macromolecules, as well as the strength and lifetime of these complexes is key to unravel cellular function.<\/p><p>E-mail: carolatfm@gmail.com<\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: inherit; font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3f4ff7f elementor-section-content-top elementor-section-height-min-height elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-items-middle\" data-id=\"3f4ff7f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6e4882b\" data-id=\"6e4882b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34b49ec elementor-vertical-align-middle elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"34b49ec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">Christopher Kushmerick, PhD<\/h3><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-ef02bf6 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ef02bf6\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-bcff46c\" data-id=\"bcff46c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e293616 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e293616\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"89\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.icb.ufmg.br\/cardiovascularrc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/download-300x89.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-1370\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.icb.ufmg.br\/cardiovascularrc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/download-300x89.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.icb.ufmg.br\/cardiovascularrc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/download.png 411w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-888c37a\" data-id=\"888c37a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bcdd93a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"bcdd93a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/lattes.cnpq.br\/6998917765406696\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.icb.ufmg.br\/cardiovascularrc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/lattes.png\" title=\"lattes\" alt=\"lattes\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58f2c2d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"58f2c2d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>He has a degree in Electrical Engineering (1987) and a PhD in Physiology and Biophysics (1996, area of concentration: Biophysics) from the State University of New York.
