A wave of spatial transcriptomics studies has produced gene-expression atlases that span entire organs and whole organisms, from mouse embryos to the roundworm C. elegans to 31 human tissues. These ...

The two main approaches for discovering disease genes reveal distinct aspects of biology, a new study shows. While both methods are widely used, the research found that they identify different genes, ...

Engineered proteins that can cross the blood–brain barrier represent a reliable and non-invasive way to map gene expression in the brains of large animals. Gene therapy has been successfully used to ...
