  text: Detailed reconstruction of the spatiotemporal history of embryonic cells is
    key to understanding tissue formation processes but is often complicated by the
    large number of cells involved, particularly so in vertebrates. Through a combination
    of high-resolution time-lapse lineage tracing and antibody staining, we have analyzed
    the movement of mesencephalic and metencephalic cell populations in the early
    zebrafish embryo. To facilitate the analysis of our cell tracking data, we have
    created TracePilot, a software tool that allows interactive manipulation and visualization
    of tracking data. We demonstrate its utility by showing novel visualizations of
    cell movement in the developing zebrafish brain. TracePilot (http://www.mpi-cbg.de/tracepilot)
    is Java-based, available free of charge, and has a program structure that allows
    the incorporation of additional analysis tools.
