+# **LEVer**
+### **The Lineaging, Editing and Validation tool**
+
+Lever was developed by Drexel University's bioimage lab under the direction of Dr. Andrew Cohen. For more information on our lab click [here](http://bioimage.coe.drexel.edu/info/).
+
+### **Key Features**
+
+#### **Implementation of [Segmentation](Segmentation) Algorithms**
+Allows users to segment images using a range analysis algorithms developed in MATLAB
+
+#### **[Multitemporial tracking](MultitempTracking) and  [Lineaging](Lineaging) of cells**
+Results of the segmentation can be tracked in order to observe cellular behavior over time and across various cell cycles
