GNDP is hosting a monthly reading group the 3rd Tuesday of each month on spatial transcriptomics this semester. The goal is to learn about this new technology, with a focus on how it can be applied to address new questions in brain and behavior. Please contact Jess Quicksall (jessicaq@illinois.edu) if you would like to attend, virtual/hybrid format.
The Spatial Omics Initiative monthly working group brings together researchers from different disciplines to enable breakthroughs in genomic biology by developing new ways to embed omics data in space, jointly with CAIM.
Graduate students from biological and analytical research groups encouraged to attend, present work, and participate in collective discussions. Lunch will be provided. Click here for full info.
