    '''
    Analyze CFSE-labeled cell samples to quantify cell division and proliferation.
    
    This function processes flow cytometry data from CFSE-labeled cells to calculate
    the cell division index and percentage of proliferating cells. It performs gating,
    identifies cell populations based on CFSE intensity, and quantifies proliferation metrics.
    
    Parameters:
    -----------
    fcs_file_path : str
        Path to the FCS file containing flow cytometry data from CFSE-labeled cells
    cfse_channel : str, optional
        Name of the channel containing CFSE fluorescence data (default: 'FL1-A')
    lymphocyte_gate : tuple or None, optional
        Tuple of (min_fsc, max_fsc, min_ssc, max_ssc) for lymphocyte gating
        If None, automatic gating will be attempted (default: None)
    
    Returns:
