Dear Bellaire City and Police @bellairepd @cityofbellaire the most dangerous part of my daily commute by bike is trying to cross the train tracks from Bellaire to WestU on Bellaire Blvd - I have to avoid being electrocuted and being run over by cars since there is no sidewalk

CellTrek, a novel technology by National Finalist, @nicholas_navin, combines single cell + spatial #transcriptomics. His team learned that different tumor cell subgroups were evolving in unique patterns within specific regions of a tumor @MDAndersonNews genengnews.com/topics/omics/…
CellTrek Maps Single Cells by Combining Spatial and scRNA-Seq Data

CellTrek Maps Single Cells by Combining Spatial and scRNA-Seq Data

CellTrek is a new tool that combines the unique advantages of scRNA-seq and spatial transcriptomic assays to create accurate spatial maps of tissue samples.

A new tool developed by the lab of Dr. Nicholas Navin uses data from single-cell RNA sequencing with that of spatial transcriptomics assays to accurately pinpoint the location of individual cell types within a tissue: fal.cn/3n6Sq @Nicholas_Navin #AACR22 #EndCancer

Computational approach enables spatial mapping of single-cell data within tissues
