If you think the next big idea in your field will come from inside the field, you're probably wrong.

Researchers at FIMM have developed an effective computational platform that automatically identifies cell types from #SpatialTranscriptomics data. The method holds great potential for understanding tissue organisation in both health and disease. 💻⬇️ helsinki.fi/en/hilife-helsin…

The cost of developing a new pharmaceutical is around $1-3 billion. But is it possible to predict the likelihood of its approval? Yes. Extremely nice work on drug repurposing and drug approvals from Ianevski et al. Happy to have contributed. doi.org/10.1093/bib/bbae328

#SpatialTranscriptomics measurements have already reached single-cell resolution. Since the first step of analyzing these data is to annotate cell types based on their transcriptomic profiles, we repurposed a pre-existing single-cell tool, #scType for ST analyses.
