EACR and Bio-Techne Spatial webinar

15:00 - 16:00 CEST on Zoom

This free webinar is hosted in collaboration with Bio-Techne Spatial, one of our valued EACR Industry Partners. In this webinar we will welcome Prof. Raphael Gottardo from Lausanne University Hospital, who will present emerging computational strategies to improve spatial resolution and data integration across samples, along with approaches for combining these modalities to enhance cell type annotation and biological interpretation.

Talk abstract

Prof. Gottardo's team combined Xenium spatial transcriptomics with COMET^TM to profile RNA and protein at single-cell resolution in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) tissue sections. Their results indicate that the two technologies are broadly compatible, with consistent cell type signals and no apparent loss of proteomic quality following Xenium processing.

He will present emerging computational strategies to improve spatial resolution and data integration across samples, along with approaches for combining these modalities to enhance cell type annotation and biological interpretation.

Overall, this work outlines a practical framework for spatial multi-omics, leveraging the complementary strengths of transcriptomics and proteomics. Finally, Prof. Gottardo will discuss strategies for using this multimodal data in exploratory analyses, as well as how COMET^TM can be leveraged to validate findings and support clinical translation.
