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 ...

Over the past decade, the Human Cell Atlas community has accomplished something that will define a generation of biology.

Biological systems are inherently three-dimensional—tissues form intricate layers, networks, and architectures where cells interact in ways that extend far beyond a flat plane. To capture the true ...

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 ...

Discover why animal models fall short in AI drug discovery and how human-first datasets and functional genomics are changing ...

A new study constructs the first 3D single-cell brain atlas of the lamprey, uncovering the 450-million-year-old molecular blueprint of vertebrates.

The rapid development of spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies has greatly advanced the understanding of gene expression, tissue architecture, cellular composition, and disease mechanisms within ...
