National Institutes of Health (NIH) Spatial Day
Join us for a special lunch-hour event! Hear from NIH researchers at CCR/NCI, NanoString scientists & bioinformaticists, and your local technology providers (CCR Spatial Imaging Technology Resource and Genomics Cores), highlighting work utilizing the CosMx & GeoMx platforms.
Light refreshments will be served, please feel free to bring your lunch!
AGENDA:
- 12:00PM – Welcome with Christine Halter Hipsky, Senior Regional Account Manager NanoString Bruker Spatial Biology, and members of CCR Spatial Imaging Technology Resource and Genomics Cores.
- 12:00PM – 12:25PM – Elucidate the Power of Spatial Biology with Whole Transcriptome to 570+ Plex Protein on the GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler and Single Cell Multi-Omics with the CosMx Spatial Molecular Imager. Jingjing Gong, PhD. Senior Field Applications Scientist, NanoString Bruker Spatial Biology.
- 12:25PM – 12:55PM – Deciphering Liver Cancer Heterogeneity: Insights from Single-cell Spatial transcriptomics. Meng Liu, PhD. Postdoctoral Fellow in the laboratory of Lichun Ma, PhD, Cancer Data Science Laboratory/CCR/NCI.
- 12:55PM – 1:25PM – Single Cell Spatial Transcriptomics shows immunotherapy driven dynamic Interactions within the AML Bone Marrow Niche. Julius Raimund Herzog, BA/BS, Postbaccalaureate Fellow in the laboratory of Chen Zhao, MD, Thoracic and GI Malignancies Branch/CCR/NCI.
- 1:25PM – 1:50PM – Interpreting Spatial Information to Uncover Novel Biology with CosMx Spatial Molecular Imaging Data Analysis. Michael Patrick, Associate Scientist, NanoString Bruker Spatial Biology.
- 2:00PM – Final Q&A
The CosMx™ Spatial Molecular Imager (SMI) provides the highest-plex assay (6000 RNA transcripts and 64 protein targets), and enables researchers to achieve more from a single experiment – cell atlasing, cell-cell interaction, cell co-localization, reference mapping (neighborhood analysis), signaling pathway analysis all from one single run.
The GeoMx® Digital Spatial Profiler (DSP) ignited the spatial biology revolution and is the leading spatial profiling technology offering high sensitivity, spatial measurement of the whole transcriptome and targeted RNAs and 570+ plex proteins with an unparalleled level of precision. Utilize fresh, frozen, or formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue sections in a nondestructive manner.
