Knowing the location of a gene within intact tissue or a single cell allows scientists to unlock unknown cellular functions. This information is often lost in most genetic sequencing techniques, but ...

Spatial transcriptomics and gene expression analysis represent a transformative approach in biomedical research, integrating the spatial context of tissues with high-resolution profiling of gene ...

This figure shows how the STAIG framework can successfully identify spatial domains by integrating image processing and contrastive learning to analyze spatial transcriptomics data effectively.

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 ...

Called SOAR (Spatial transcriptOmics Analysis Resource), the now-live platform is a one-stop shop that helps scientists explore how genes behave differently in various parts of the body, shows them ...

Fei Chen and Chenlei Hu at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard have developed a new imaging-free spatial transcriptomics technology that tracks the diffusion of DNA barcodes between beads in an ...

Neurodegenerative diseases affect more than 57 million people globally. The incidence of these diseases, from Alzheimer's to Parkinson's to ALS and beyond, is expected to double every 20 years. Though ...

Conventional transcriptomic techniques have revealed much about gene expression at the population and single-cell level—but they overlook one crucial factor: spatial context. In musculoskeletal ...

The rapid development of spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies has greatly advanced the understanding of gene expression, tissue architecture, cellular composition, and disease mechanisms within ...

In this GEN Learning Lab, our expert panelists Linda Orzolek, MS, MB, Xuhuai Ji, MD, PhD, and Christina Chang, PhD, will discuss the current landscape of imaging- and next-generation sequencing-based ...

Effective anti-tumor immunity is not only defined by which immune cells are present in a tumor, but also by how they are organized in space. Across cancer ...
