Omics goes spatial epigenomics
CellPress
Spatial omics techniques generate spatially resolved, comprehensive data about molecules that define the identity and function of cells in tissues. Epigenetic multiplexing approaches such as Multiplexed Error-robust FISH (MERFISH), introduced by Lu etĀ al.
in this issue ofĀ Cell, now allows researchers to study the epigenomic regulation of gene expression in a tissue-region specific manner.
