New tool uses RNA sequencing to chart rich maps of cellular and tissue function

Thursday, March 28, 2019 - 13:10 in Biology & Nature

A new technique developed by scientists at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard gives an unprecedented view of the cellular organization of tissues. Known as Slide-seq, the method uses genetic sequencing to draw detailed, three-dimensional maps of tissues, revealing not only what cell types are present, but where they are located and what they are doing.
