A ’triad’ made of a killer T cell (red), helper t cell (green), and dendritic cell (yellow) unite to form a strong fighting force against cancer cells. There’s a frustrating fact about today’s ...

Researchers use AI "digital twins" to discover a new type of neuron in the visual cortex that perceives complex textures and object arrangements.

Biological tissues are made up of different cell types arranged in specific patterns, which are essential to their proper functioning. Understanding these spatial arrangements is important when ...

A new paper published in Nature Communications reveals how the way tree species are arranged in a forest can help optimize ecosystem functioning and productivity. Subscribe to our newsletter for the ...

Spatial genomics is a cutting-edge field that combines genomics and spatial analysis to investigate the role of genomic features in disease at single-cell resolution. Spatial genomics is a field of ...

Single-cell RNA sequencing has transformed biology by showing which genes are active in individual cells. However, this approach requires cells to be removed from their natural environment, erasing ...

When we visited AACR 2025 (24-30 April 2025; Chicago, IL ,USA) it rapidly became clear that two developing technological fields were taking the conference by storm: multiomic and spatial techniques.
