Discovery could lead to a new melanoma target.

Using a process known as single cell sequencing, scientists at Karolinska Institutet have produced a detailed map of cortical cell types and the genes active within them. The study, which is published in the journal Science, marks the first time this method of analysis has been used on such a large scale on such complex tissue.

A novel microdevice capable of detecting 42 unique immune effector proteins has been developed.

Maverix Analytic Platform integrates with Elsevier Pathway Studio for seamless NGS analysis workflow to assist critical decision making.

Scientists at EPFL have developed a new lab-on-a-chip technique to analyze single cells from entire population. The new method, which uses beads and microfluidics can change the way we study mixed populations of cells, such as those of tumors.

Researchers have built a 3D cell culture system which can help identify small molecules that could be used to treat ovarian cancer.

New statistical method for RNA-seq analysis identifies, corrects for hidden structure between cells.

Collaboration to investigate the combination of ANGLE’s Parsortix harvesting platform with the Collaborator’s single cell analysis system.

Research reveals more about the role the symbiotic relationship humans have with bacteria may play in tumor progression.

New collaboration between EMBL-EBI, the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and Fluidigm keeps research and technology on the cutting-edge of single-cell genomics.
