GRIDGENE takes a cell-free approach, using transcript density to define biologically relevant tissue regions such as: ✨ Tissue interfaces ✨ Phenotype-enriched compartments ✨ Gene signature–defined zones

💡 This enables powerful insights into tissue organization, microenvironments & biological processes — while still being compatible with cell-based methods when needed.

Exciting work led by @StephSchubert! We uncover a new variant of the beta isoform of the p53 gene linked to cancer risk. A STOP loss germline mutation increases its oligomerization with the main p53 isoform, affecting its function! #Genetics #Cancer

Happy to share the 'Behind the Paper' on our recent publication about the integration of Imaging Mass Cytometry and Mass Spectrometry Imaging. Can't wait to see what the combination of spatial metabolomics and proteomics will teach us! @deMirandaLab communities.springernature.c…

A workflow integrating imaging mass cytometry and mass spectrometry-based imaging on the same tissue sample, developed by @deMirandaLab, enables analysis of metabolic heterogeneity at the single cell level. @MEIjsselsteijn @Joana_BrasNunes @NFdeMiranda nature.com/articles/s41592-0…

By sequentially applying MALDI-MSI and IMC on the same tissue section, we can map the cellular makeup of the tissue microenvironment and simultaneously uncover the metabolic phenotypes of individual cells.
