Welcome to the monthly FibroHUB, the last one of the year 2024!
10 December at 15-16 Place: Lecture hall F202 (Aapistie 5B)
Topic: by Daniel Ungureanu: Setting scRNA-seq technologies for understanding tissue heterogeneity and drug responses
Daniela's teamhttps://www.oulu.fi/en/research-groups/precision-oncology-ovarian-cancer recently made a scientific breakthrough with their paper in Nature Chemical Biology, which has immediately received a lot of media attention.
A multiplex single-cell RNA-Seq pharmacotranscriptomics pipeline for drug discovery.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39482470/ Dini A, Barker H, Piki E, Sharma S, Raivola J, Murumägi A, Ungureanu D. Nat Chem Biol. 2024 Oct 31. doi: 10.1038/s41589-024-01761-8. Online ahead of print.PMID: 39482470
Brief intro to the topic: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has become a powerful tool for understanding tissue heterogeneity by profiling gene expression at the single-cell level. This allows for the detection of rare cell types, uncovering cellular diversity, and identifying the molecular signatures of different cell populations and the way these cells respond to perturbations. There are several scRNA-seq technologies that are particularly valuable for exploring transcriptomics at single cell levels. Come to find out!
