Theme Breaking Spatial Barriers with 10x Genomics

General

Assessing gene expression with morphological context is critical to our understanding of biology and the progression of disease. Historically, it has been challenging to spatially interrogate complex heterogeneous tissues in a high-throughput manner, especially without previously generated assumptions about the genes being expressed.

Join this event by 10x Genomics and Amsterdam UMC to learn how single-cell and spatial products from 10x Genomics give you a comprehensive understanding of the relationships between cellular function, phenotype, interactions, and location in intact tissue sections. Enabling deeper insight into cancer, immunology, neuroscience, developmental biology, and beyond, spatial gene expression insights give researchers the ability to see biology in new ways. Discover novel insights into normal development, disease pathology, and clinical translational research.
