Abstract: Spatial transcriptomics extends single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technologies by providing spatial context for cell type identification and analysis. Imaging-based spatial technologies such as Multiplexed Error-Robust Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (MERFISH) can achieve single-cell…
