A new frontier of molecular biology, spatial biology provides insight into the temporal-spatial relationship of biological activity within tissue and cell samples. This pioneering field will provide doctors and scientists with a new view of the inner workings of cells.
The ability to discern spatial gene expression differences in complex biological systems is critical to our understanding of developmental biology and the progression of disease. However, the...
Early detection is critical for improved survival in melanoma. Melanocytic nevi are extremely common benign tumors that mimic melanoma and are therefore commonly biopsied. Currently, the dete...
Spatial transcriptomics methods permit gene expression from focal areas within a tissue to be profiled while maintaining the morphologic context of the tissue microenvironment. This presentat...
