Spatial ribonucleic acid (RNA) transcriptomics measures gene expression while preserving each molecule’s coordinates in intact tissue, tying transcripts to histology and local microenvironments.

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 ...

Many spatial biology researchers rely on two-dimensional tools, which section the cellular architecture and processes occurring within 3D tissues into flat layers. Three-dimensional multiomic analysis ...

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 ...
