Histology for Single Cell Genomics

Recorded On: 09/18/2023

Spatial-transcriptomics technologies have become more accessible and popular with the commercial release of products from companies such as 10x Genomics, Curio, Nanostring, and Vizgen, to name a few. This session will first describe the differences between the currently available products and then go into the details of how they each work. We will also discuss the critical steps that need to be taken before the block of tissue is sectioned all the way to post-placement on the slide. We will wrap up the session by discussing creating partnerships with genomics cores to enable a smooth transition between technologies. This will be an informative session that will encourage questions and dialogue about what people might be encountering.

CEUs: This histology course is worth 1 continuing education credit. Course is available for 365 days from date of registration.
