Spatial Transcriptomics

The location of a cell in a multicellular organism is crucial for its function. Towards the goal of fully characterizing cells' functions and understanding tissue architecture, spatial transcriptomics exposes tissue heterogeneity by quantifying and localizing the gene expression in the tissue context.

CLC Single Cell Analysis Module offers a tool for importing spatial transcriptomics data from Space Ranger spatial outputs (see Import Spatial Transcriptomics). Various aspects of the data can be visualized using the resulting Spatial Transcriptomics Plot. Additionally, the plot can be linked to a Dimensionality Reduction Plot, such that the same visualization can be applied simultaneously to both plots.
