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 ...

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 ...

Technological development is key to improving the way hematologic cancer is diagnosed and treated. With this vision, the Josep Carreras Leukemia Research Institute is committed to the creation and ...

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.

Illumina is raising the curtain on its upcoming entry into spatial transcriptomics, with tech designed to help researchers explore cellular behavior mapped across complex tissues. The announcement ...

Spatial transcriptomics provides a unique perspective on the genes that cells express and where those cells are located. However, the rapid growth of the technology has come at the cost of ...

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 collaborations will provide Illumina's customers with workflows for genomic disease characterization and spatial mapping.

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 (ST) technologies reveal the spatial organization of gene expression in tissues, providing critical insights into development, neurobiology, and cancer. However, the high cost ...

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 ...
