Through keynotes speeches, short presentations and networking, we wish to raise mutual awareness among participants about ongoing projects in single-cell technologies and promote scientific exchanges.

The event will include short talks by participants presenting ongoing work done using single cell/nucleus and spatial omics, as well as three keynote speakers, each tackling different themes pertaining to their innovative work in single-cell and spatial transcriptomics research.

Our sponsors: 10x Genomics will also introduce their latest VisiumHD platform, with a special Q&A session during lunch to address any of your queries. Parse Biosciences will present their single cell platform and solutions, with a special Q&A session during the coffee sessions to address any of your queries.
