A wave of spatial transcriptomics studies has produced gene-expression atlases that span entire organs and whole organisms, from mouse embryos to the roundworm C. elegans to 31 human tissues. These ...

Tumors contain many different types of cells organized in complex spatial patterns that can influence how the disease progresses. Because of this, it is hard to predict how a tumor will develop and ...

Mount Sinai researchers have published the first organ-wide human skin spatial atlas from across the body. It provides an ...

Understanding gene expression within the body has been a boon for 21st century biology and therapeutics, but most discoveries ...

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 ...

Rare cancers encompass a heterogeneous group of malignancies characterized by low incidence and prevalence but, often, disproportionately high mortality ...

Applying single-cell RNA sequencing has led researchers to be able to profile the entire transcriptome of cells. However, these transcriptomes prove difficult to link back to their original location ...

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

A new single-cell atlas shows how epigenetic changes reshape brain cells during aging, revealing genomic instability, ...

Spatial transcriptomics has revealed that premalignant pancreatic cells organise into defined microenvironments that interact ...
