Abstract

MotiQ is an open-source software for automated quantification of microglial motility and morphology. MotiQ can be applied to in vivo, ex vivo, and in vitro data from confocal, epifluorescence, and two-photon microscopy. MotiQ is not limited to microglia—it can also be applied to other cell types.
