Numerous cellular subtypes assume stereotypical positions within brain regions where the location is crucial to their function. Therefore, spatial information is imperative for understanding the brain. Spatial gene expression atlases combine transcript and protein expression data with positional information, allowing researchers to uncover new cell types and determine their functions.
Download this data spotlight from 10x Genomics to learn how to combine single cell transcriptomics and immunohistochemistry with spatial analysis to map the brain and identify new molecular cell types.
