p-shrestha/erythroSight ? reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a MATLAB project that processes microscope images of red blood cells from the Octopi system and helps characterize and screen for sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia.

I want it to work on both a local machine and on a cluster, so please keep the code organized in a way that makes it easy to run either way. It should take raw cell images, clean them up, segment the cells, measure basic shape and morphology features, and then produce results and plots that help compare normal samples with diseased ones.

Please make the workflow easy to follow, with clear steps for loading data, running the analysis, and saving outputs. If useful, include simple scripts or functions for batch processing folders of images and generating summary figures. Use the existing README and dataset description as guidance, and look up any current MATLAB documentation online if you need to.
