Spatial Transcriptomics Workshop

In January 2026, the DRESDEN-concept Genome Center (DcGC) and 10x Genomics hosted a workshop on spatial transcriptomics data analysis, focusing on the imaging-based Xenium platform. About 60 scientists joined the in-depth seminar on the technology. This was followed by a hands-on training for 18 junior scientists from TU Dresden, University Hospital Dresden, and MPI-CBG. The DcGC bioinformatics team guided participants through R-based workflows for QC, pre-processing, and downstream analyses, including identification of cell types and tissue regions. Thank you to all speakers and participants!
