  • Season 2

  • Adam Bates & Matthew Bottomley - Dissecting the role of the immune system in skin and lung cancer with spatial biology

    Adam Bates & Matthew Bottomley - Dissecting the role of the immune system in skin and lung cancer with spatial biology

    Listen how spatial biology brought together a nephrologist and a cancer research graduate student from the University of Oxford to help each other dissect the role played by the immune system in skin and lung cancer and open the way for new immuno-therapy drug targets.

  • David Krull - the power of mentoring, networking and collaborations, lessons from the GeoMx® DSP Best Practices Guidance Consortium

    David Krull - the power of mentoring, networking and collaborations, lessons from the GeoMx® DSP Best Practices Guidance Consortium

    In this episode, we talked to David Krull, Associate Director at GSK, leading the cellular biomarkers team. He told us about his passion for coaching and mentoring and how vital networking and collaborations have been for his career. We discussed how pharmaceutical companies are embracing tissue profiling technologies and David shared his views on applying spatial omics for biomarker discovery.

  • Alessia Ciarrocchi - Spatial transcriptomics at the service of translational oncology

    Alessia Ciarrocchi - Spatial transcriptomics at the service of translational oncology

    In this new spatial navigator episode, we speak to a spatial pioneer, Pr. Ciarrocchi Professor at the Azienda Unità Sanitaria Locale and Cancer Research institute of Reggio Emilia, who shares her passion for translational oncology and how she got started as group leader. During this podcast, we learn how her current work on spatial transcriptomics to dissect pleural mesothelioma heterogeneity directly serves her community. Listen to the episode to learn more about mesothelioma pathology, immune/inflammatory processes and biomarker discovery.

  • Sarah Best and Saskia Freytag - Dissecting high-grade glioma spatially

    Sarah Best and Saskia Freytag - Dissecting high-grade glioma spatially

    Sarah Best and Saskia Freytag are laboratory heads at the Brain Cancer Research Lab in Australia's Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research.In this podcast episode, they share their views and interest for tackling high-grade glioma by dissecting its heterogeneity and its interactions with the microenvironment. They also discuss why Spatial Biology was key to uncover subtype-specific heterogeneity and how they combined the power of GeoMx DSP and CosMx SMI to maximize their understanding of this cancer type. At the end of the episode, they comment on the future of spatial multiomics, why location matters and how it is revolutionizing the field.This podcast includes information regarding worldwide products and services, not all of which are available in every country.

  • Mirranda Orr, PhD - Alzheimer’s Disease, cellular senescence and spatial biology

    Mirranda Orr, PhD - Alzheimer’s Disease, cellular senescence and spatial biology

    In this episode we talk about Dr. Orr’s research on the effects of tau accumulation on cellular senescence and how leveraging spatial biology with both GeoMx DSP and CosMx SMI teaches us more about the biology of neurodegenerative diseases than we have learned in the past 10 years.This podcast includes information regarding worldwide products and services, not all of which are available in every country.
