Dr. Xuyu Qian in his current laboratory, standing beside a collection of external hard drives containing raw spatial transcriptomics data from his groundbreaking human brain development research. The ...

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.

Strapped with an extra APP, people with Down’s syndrome are all but destined to develop Alzheimer’s dementia if they live past middle age. Compared with sporadic forms of the disease, DSAD starts ...

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 ...

Spatial transcriptomics is a technique that provides information about gene expression patterns within intact tissues. This technology employs various methodologies, including in situ sequencing (ISS) ...

Perhaps our most defining characteristic as a species, the six-layered human cortex, hosts billions of neural connections that bestow Homo sapiens with higher-order thinking. But how does this ...

The cerebral cortex is the largest part of a mammal's brain, and by some measures the most important. In humans in particular, it's where most things happen-like perception, thinking, memory storage ...

Cornell researchers have discovered a new application of spatial transcriptomics, an imaging technique that analyzes and maps the gene activity in a tissue sample. The researchers used this technique ...
