Video about the course.

The goal of this two-week course is to teach students cutting-edge wet-lab approaches for single cell analysis, and to provide familiarity with basic bioinformatic approaches to single cell data. Modules of the course will be taught by scientists with expertise in distinct areas of single cell analysis.

Topics:
  • Droplet-based single cell RNA-seq using RNA Flex Technology.

  • Single cell Imaging using Single cell Transcriptomics And Multimodal Profiling though imaging (STAMP) using Xenium Technology.

  • Spatial Transcriptomics of tissues using Visium HD

  • Single-Cell Western blot

  • Single-Cell Mass Spectrometry

  • Photoactivatable probes

  • Introduction to Bioinformatics (R/Python)

  • Single-Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Bioinformatics

  • and more
