Enter a new era of spatial discovery with Visium HD

Tissue microenvironments strongly influence cellular identity and function, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic response. Spatially resolved whole transcriptome profiling allows unbiased characterization of the biology of tissue environments. Visium HD Spatial Gene Expression fundamentally enhances the discovery power of this approach by enabling whole transcriptome spatial analysis at single cell scale with no gaps in tissue coverage. Built on the Visium CytAssist workflow, Visium HD provides high-quality data through precise transcript localization and unprecedented access to archived or pre-sectioned FFPE tissues.

Gain a comprehensive transcriptomic readout from every micron of tissue to define the cellular composition of fine anatomical structures, discover the role of rare tissue-resident cellular populations, and identify novel cell-type specific biomarkers and drug targets with spatial context.

Speakers are from 10x Genomics: Leilani Marty Santos, Ph.D., spatial science and technology advisor, and Joseph Ipe, Ph.D., senior spatial field applications scientist.

The Biomedical Research Core Facilities (BRCF) are part of the Medical School Office of Research, where our mission is to foster an environment of innovation and efficiency that serves the Michigan Medicine research community and supports biomedical science from insight to impact.

The BRCF Advanced Genomics Core whose mission is to facilitate research in cutting-edge fields of genetics and genomics by implementing complex technologies. Chief among these is “next-generation” sequencing (NGS), which has revolutionized research in virtually all biological fields in the past decade. By housing NGS and companion genomic technologies in a single facility, we provide centralized expertise in advanced methods that enables all researchers to effectively exploit them for making scientific discoveries.

The University of Michigan Single Cell Spatial Analysis Program (SCSAP) is bringing together expertise and resources in the single cell and spatial analysis research space including faculty recruitment, research core services and research community support.  Our goal is to provide University of Michigan Faculty with all the tools and infrastructure needed for success in single call and spatial analysis.

The University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center seeks to reduce cancer burden and improve cancer outcomes through research, innovation and transdisciplinary collaboration. Our patient care is multidisciplinary, which means treatment plans are developed with input from many experts: pathologists, radiologists, surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists. These team members share their experiences and knowledge of specific cancer to provide the very best options. Due to our extensive research programs, the majority of our patients have access to new forms of treatment, many developed here as a result of clinical trials.
