Precursor Cohort Method
The precursor cohort method is a graphical method that can be used to determine the parameters of a simplified model of cell proliferation.
The details of the precursor cohort method are presented in a paper: Measuring lymphocyte proliferation, survival and differentiation using CFSE time-series data. (2007) Hawkins et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 2:2057.
A simple Step-by-Step worksheet for Excel
We have created an Excel spreadsheet to implement the precursor cohort method. Due to differences between Microsoft Office on Mac and PC it comes in two versions.
Here is a link to the Mac version
