Stalefish

Stalefish is an open-source Linux tool for analysing gene expression. It works with images of brain slices as the starting material for this analysis. The software is suited to users who need to examine gene expression in image-based brain data.

Its main workflow allows users to build three-dimensional expression surfaces from brain slice images. These surfaces can then be converted into two-dimensional expression maps. This gives the software a role in moving between image-based data and different representations of gene expression.

Stalefish is listed in the Education category because its purpose relates to studying and interpreting gene expression. It may be relevant to learners, educators, and others working with educational material about brain images and gene expression. The project’s supporting material includes slides and a published paper for readers seeking additional context.

MirrorNest distributes the official Stalefish build directly from its own storage. Before publication, the mirrored build is scanned for malware. The Linux platform and open-source license make the catalog entry relevant to users looking for inspectable educational software for that operating system.
