The Allen Institute, together with partner organizations, today launched the Brain Health accelerator: an ambitious global research initiative seeking to identify the specific brain cells and circuits ...

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.

Certain cells in the brain create a nurturing environment, enhancing the health and resilience of their neighbors, while others promote stress and damage. Using spatial transcriptomics and AI, ...

Breakthrough research details how distinct tissue niches and cell communication contribute to chronic active lesions in MS. Study: Cell type mapping reveals tissue niches and interactions in ...

Integrated mass spectrometry imaging and spatial transcriptomics reveal that amyloid-β plaques differ in composition and local tissue responses, offering insight into Alzheimer’s disease heterogeneity ...

In the brain, location is everything. And the throngs of cells that live there are nothing without the billions of distinct connections between them. Although scientists can use single-cell ...

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 ...

Salk researchers used spatial transcriptomics to map where different cell types reside in the mouse brain. Shown are excitatory neurons (left, blue), inhibitory neurons (middle, red), and non-neuronal ...
