High-resolution mapping of the breast cancer tumor micro environment
We describe new methods that bring together single-cell gene expression (Chromium Fixed RNA Profiling), spatial transcriptomics (Visium CytAssist), and automated, microscopy-based in situ technology (Xenium In Situ) to better characterize the breast cancer tumor microenvironment leading to new biological insights about the trajectory of disease.
