Single Cell and Spatial Omics ONLINE – December Webinar Series

When: December 7, 2021 Time: 3:00 pm

Cellular heterogeneity underpins many of life’s processes, from normal development to the onset of disease. Since the advent of single-cell sequencing, cellular heterogeneity has been heavily studied in the search of novel insights into disease onset. Coupled with spatial context in tissue samples, the granularity of this research has reached even finer details.

In the next series of Single-cell and Spatial Omics ONLINE, we delve into the advances in single-cell and spatial sequencing capabilities, highlight key areas of research and showcase how improvements to the workflow can accelerate discoveries.

By registering for the first webinar in the series you will automatically gain access to the subsequent webinars.

Webinar 1: Single-cell meets spatial biology

Tuesday, 7th December, 3pm GMT/ 4pm CET/ 10am EST

For many, the addition of spatial context into single-cell studies has transformed research. This webinar will focus on recent discoveries fuelled by spatial biology and phenotyping and explore how this is impacting our understanding of tissue architecture.

Through the eye of the computer – Shirin Elizabeth Khorsandi, Adjunct senior lecturer, King’s College London

Improving clustering in spatial transcriptomics data – Lana Garmire, Associate Professor, Department of Computational Medicine & Bioinformatics, University of Michigan

Webinar 2: Integrated single-cell multi-omics – approaches and analysis

Thursday, 9th December, 3pm GMT/ 4pm CET/ 10am EST

A lot of attention has been given to single-cell multi-modal analyses. This webinar will focus on advances in single-cell multi-omics and methods of analysis as well as highlight case studies of where insights have been gained.

Graph neural network applications in single cell multi-omics analysis– Anjun Ma, Research Scientist, The Ohio State University

Using sparsely-connected- autoencoders for single-cell multi-omics data analysis – Raffaele Calogero, Professor, University of Torino
