Introduction:

The spatial organisation of cells within tissues plays a pivotal role in various biological processes such as embryonic development, disease progression, and cell-to-cell communication. Understanding the cellular spatial organisation and tissue architecture is therefore key to understanding the mechanistic details of many of these biological processes. Spatial transcriptomics is a powerful technique that combines the strength of histology and transcriptomics and allows for quantification of gene expression while preserving spatial position information.

In this webinar, we will cover the basics of spatial transcriptomics, scientific questions that can benefit from this technique, the evolution of spatial transcriptomics technologies over the years and cutting-edge spatial transcriptomics platforms and their applications. We will also discuss how Novogene’s end-to-end service workflow for spatial transcriptomics can support your research goals. Whether you are a beginner looking to understand what spatial transcriptomics is about, or an experienced spatial transcriptomics user, this webinar will widen your perspective on spatial transcriptomics and aid your research goals.

Learning Objectives:

• Introduction to spatial transcriptomics
• Spatial transcriptomics technologies and applications
• Novogene’s end-to-end spatial transcriptomics service workflow
