Spatial Biology Interest Group
The functions of biological systems rely on well-organized, spatially orchestrated cells. Recent advances in spatial molecular profiling offer a unique opportunity to understand the spatial landscape of cells and their interaction dynamics in both health and disease. Cutting-edge imaging and sequencing based spatial profiling technologies have been implemented at the NIH. The question remains as how to unlock the full potential of the spatial data to understand fundamental biological questions. The Spatial Biology SIG aims to engage researchers in the spatial biology community, ranging from spatial biology, computational method development, and technology advancement, to promote interactions among NIH scientists and facilitate new scientific discoveries. We organize monthly seminar series by inviting both intramural and extramural experts in the field. A scientific symposium will be a potential future event.
