Last week @jawadalaaedeen.bsky.social attended the Single Cell Biology Conference at the @wellcomegenome.bsky.social Campus and had the opportunity to share his work and discuss the future of spatial technologies with fellow conference participants.

It was great to see @denisschapiro.bsky.social present as a newly appointed Professor at the Tag der Medizinischen Fakultät (Medical Faculty Day). He gave an overview of the lab’s work, the Translational Spatial Profiling Center (TSPC) and discussed several exciting projects in the lab.

We're super excited this work out now in Nature Communications. Congratulations Chiara!

1/ A PhD milestone 👏 My work on comparing neighbor preference methods for spatial data analysis is out in Nature Communications. We compared 9+ neighbor preference methods and propose a new approach that combines the most relevant analysis features: COZI. Read more: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Introducing Count COMET 🧛🧛‍♀️ Happy Halloween! 🎃

Last week our lab came together for our annual lab retreat, kindly hosted by @hlsalliance.bsky.social! We exchanged ideas about our research, spatial omics, and took part in some fun (albeit slightly competitive) activities.

We're excited to be at GloBIAS 2025 in Kobe Japan! Come say hi to @arojhada.bsky.social (presenting cell phenotyping) and @miguelib.bsky.social (presenting micronuclAI)

We're excited to share that we have released histoCAT_1.78.3 🐈 For the next major update, we would like to learn more about your individual use cases and current needs. Please fill out this survey to let us know your opinions: tinyurl.com/histoCAT #spatialomics #spatialproteomics

We're excited to be at the Kick Off Heidelberg Spatial-Omics Lunch Seminar Series with our very own @chiaraschiller.bsky.social presenting some of her PhD work!

Big congratulations to @sabrinalewis.bsky.social on being awarded 2nd place for her talk at the Heidelberg Postdoc Symposium 🥳🎉

Great to see @miguelib.bsky.social attending the Medizin Informatik Initiative (MII) summer school 2025 at Kassel 👨‍💻💅

1/ Ever wondered how to best quantify cell-cell neighbor preferences in tissues? We compared 9+ neighbor preference (NEP) methods for analysing spatial omics data and propose a novel approach that combines the most relevant analysis features which we call COZI 🔬✨ Read more: doi.org/10.1101/2025...
