    New Bioinformatics Competition for Spatial Transcriptomics: MICOS-EU

    Our partners and we have established a bioinformatics algorithm competition to promote the attention and development of spatial transcriptomics and solicit new methods for multi-modal data and multi-omics data analysis.

    [This is not a commercial. The entire contest is for public benefit.]

    It names: 2024 Mammoth International Contest On Omics Sciences in Europe (MICOS-EU)

    For this competition, we have sought prizes of more than 20,000 USD from our partners to reward outstanding contestants, and the winners will also have the opportunity to receive a full scholarship.

    We all know that Spatial Transcriptomics was named the 2020 Method of the Year by Nature Methods because of its enormous value to the big data analysis of multi-omics data.

    It plays a crucial role in a multitude of applications to omics research and data science by providing spatially resolved gene expression information within tissues or organisms. This technology enables the integration of transcriptomic data with other omics data, such as genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, and combines images and video data for correlation to gain a comprehensive understanding of biological systems.

    The high dimensionality, heterogeneity, complementarity, and consistency of multi-omics datasets (including spatial transcriptomics data) present challenges for data analysis.

    Therefore, we hope to utilize clustering algorithms to optimize and integrate spatial transcriptomics data to enhance the effectiveness and interpretability of data analysis.

    We welcome all researchers to participate to promote the use of data and the advancement of algorithms.

    Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
    by SEQadmin2



    CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

    Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

    Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
    by SEQadmin2



    Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
