Tumors contain many different types of cells organized in complex spatial patterns that can influence how the disease progresses. Because of this, it is hard to predict how a tumor will develop and ...

The discovery of cancer biomarkers is a critical component to improving patient outcomes. Key biomarkers not only determine what drives tumor growth, they also facilitate the development of treatment ...

Researchers developed an analytic framework for spatial-omics data that can help to map biological activity within tumors.

New simulator and computational tools generate realistic ‘virtual tissues’ and map cell-to-cell ‘conversations’ from spatial transcriptomics data, potentially accelerating AI-driven discoveries in ...

Heather Rosenfeld, Director of Smith’s Spatial Analysis Laboratory (SAL), has built her life around maps. As an undergraduate at the University of Chicago, she took her first GIS classes, which led to ...

The condition of the eye’s retina, and in particular the measure of retinal thickness (influenced by factors such as the amount of vascularization, atrophy, ischemic damage, and the presence or ...

In a massive research project spanning five years and stretching the length of the Northeast seaboard, scientists have created a spatial map of the sea that shows how individual fishing communities ...

The brain creates internal 'maps' to help us navigate and learn from our surroundings, but how these maps form remains a challenge to understand. Now, a study led by Liset M. de la Prida at the Cajal ...
