Thailand Spatial Biology Exploratory Grant
Applications will be accepted from now till the 15th of April
Calling all Thai researchers!
NanoString is holding a competition to find the most exciting project in Thailand!
Spatial Transcriptomics was named the method of the year in 2020 by Nature. The GeoMx® Digital Spatial Profiler was commercialised in 2019 and has since gone on to feature in esteemed journals like Cell, Nature, Blood, and Gut.
The nCounter Analysis System has over 6500 publications and has been excellent in generating robust, reliable, and reproducible data. No need for library preparation, no amplification bias, and excellent performance on FFPE tissue. It has been featured in virtually all major journals, including the New England Journal of Medicine and The Lancet.
Submit an abstract and stand a chance to win access to the GeoMx® Digital Spatial Profiler and the nCounter® Analysis System through PB Precision Med as we celebrate the start of their GeoMx DSP service.
Experience the power of NanoString’s Technology. Interrogate your clinical samples and gain insights with unbiased expression. Use spatial biology to see differential expression between your healthy and diseased samples.
