Continuing my thoughts:
I ran your loop, and got several tuples, each representing a directory. All
the tuples have the same structure: 0th element is the name of the
directory, followed by a list of subdirs (possibly empty) and a list of
files (possibly empty). I find no reason to maipulate this by Excel. Try
instead:

def clean(f):
    any processing, removing here

path = ".../Leukemia_Project"
dirlists = []
for (files) in os.walk(path):
    print(files)
    dirlists.append(clean(files))
    print("\n")

Then go on with next step. You will enjoy your work more than with
printing-marking-copying-pasting-saving-opening-processing-saving-reopening...
