Scope-X, an expanded version of the Seq-Scope spatial transcriptomics method. The technique overcomes diffusion limits and ...

Spatial transcriptomics may have just achieved single-cell resolution. Researchers led by Evan Macosko, Fei Chen, and colleagues at the Broad Institute in Cambridge, Massachusetts, bound together ...

Single-cell RNA transcriptomics allows researchers to broadly profile the gene expression of individual cells in a particular tissue. This technique has allowed researchers to identify new subsets of ...

Researchers at the Max Delbrück Center have developed an open-source spatial transcriptomics (ST) platform, called Open-ST, that creates 3D molecular maps from patient tissue samples with subcellular ...

Breast cancer remains one of the most prevalent and life-threatening forms of cancer, impacting millions worldwide. This malignancy's heterogeneity and complexity have long posed significant ...

AGBT is also, increasingly, a showcase for instruments for spatial biology, a fast-growing field that involves pinpointing the location of RNA and protein molecules en masse. Tarbox calls the meeting ...

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 ...

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 ...

The human lymphatic system is notoriously difficult to map due to its size and variability among individuals. Spatial ...

In this piece, I highlight one particular talk that caught my interest — given by Elana Fertig, Dean E. Albert Reece Endowed Professor of Medicine at the University of Maryland. Fertig’s talk centered ...
