BART-spatial unravels biologically significant transcriptional regulators from spatial omics data (opens in new tab)

Transcriptional regulators (TRs) are crucial regulators of cell fate decisions by activating or repressing lineage-specific genes and integrating environmental signals with intrinsic networks. Identifying functional TRs is essential for understanding development, tissue organization, and disease. Emerging spatial transcriptomics and epigenomics technologies now provide near-single-cell resolution mapping of genomic features while preserving information of each cell's physical location and mic...
