What led you to be an early adopter of spatial transcriptomics? What was your first spatial project? At ETH Zürich, we wanted to understand the influence of the local mechanical environment on molecular expression patterns during musculoskeletal regeneration in mouse models. Previously, in my ETH Postdoc fellowship project we had developed a femur defect [...]
What led you to be an early adopter of spatial transcriptomics? What was your first spatial project? I was working with Tom Clemens on a project on sensory nerves in limb regeneration. When we met up at the Gordon Bone and Teeth Research Conference in February 2020 he introduced me to Robert Tower, saying [...]
What led you to be an early adopter of spatial transcriptomics? What was your first spatial project? During my time at UPenn, we quickly realized the power of single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq), but more recent analyses looking at ways to predict cell-cell communication emphasized the need to put these cell populations within their [...]
