Spatial Transcriptomics
The Visium Spatial Gene Expression is a next-generation molecular profiling solution for classifying tissue based on total mRNA. This allows mapping the whole transcriptome with a morphological context in FFPE or fresh frozen tissues to discover novel insights into normal development and disease pathology. The GCF has the only Visium CytAssist instrument in Norway, which enables to profile pre-sectioned tissues using the Visium for FFPE and fresh frozen gene expression workflow.
The unique combination of high-plex and high-throughput spatial profiling of these technologies enables researchers to assess and quantify the biological implications of heterogeneity within tissue samples, and to study cellular microenvironments.
