Happy to release v1 of #Qontextualize! It's a chrome extension I've been building over the last couple of months to aid in scientific #FactCheck for #YouTube videos. Inspired by a particularly awful anti-vaxxer video.

Thrilled to share some of my PhD work from the @Bendall_Lab - using MIBI & ATAC-seq, we found spatially enriched HLADR^low microglia in AD brains tied to synaptic zones & immune activation beyond classic DAMs.

Really cool method for identifying spatial interactive niches in multiplex images from a really cool person! (Actually like the nicest bestest person!)

Super excited to introduce QUICHE (Quantitative InterCellular Niche Enrichment) - a statistical method that can be used to discover local cellular niches differentially enriched in spatial regions, longitudinal samples, or clinical patient groups :) (1/10) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

When you bike to lab on a Saturday and realize you forgot your keys but can see the machine through the window, taunting you.

Looking forward to sharing thoughts around the proverbial campfire on #spatialbiology come this August!

We're excited to announce that the 2nd annual Spatial Biology Workshop will be taking place August 28th-30th at Stanford. The workshop will cover new techniques and tools for generating and analyzing spatial data, as well as new biology discovered using spatial methods.
