A wave of spatial transcriptomics studies has produced gene-expression atlases that span entire organs and whole organisms, ...

Spatial transcriptomics is a cutting-edge technique that characterizes gene expression within sections of tissue, such as heart, skin or liver tissue. These snapshots provide insights into how spatial ...

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 ...

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 ...

Tumors contain many different types of cells organized in complex spatial patterns that can influence how the disease ...

Researchers developed an analytic framework for spatial-omics data that can help to map biological activity within tumors.

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

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 ...

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 ...

Andreas Pfenning discusses the techniques being developed and used to study neuronal heterogeneity and the therapeutic potential of his work.

A single-cell atlas of brain aging epigenetics has mapped methylation, chromatin, and gene activity changes across 36 cell ...
