Session

Overview: In this session Pr R Beijersbergen will demonstrate how functional genomic screening technologies can be applied to radiation oncology research. More specifically, he will highlight the numerous advantages of spatial transcriptomics over single-cell transcriptomics, emphasizing its ability to integrate gene expression analysis with spatial information, enabling gene expression mapping in the context of individual cell and histology. Lastly, he will address current limitations, including analytical complexity, resolution and cost.
