On 13-14 June 2024, the VIB Tools & Technologies conference Spatial Omics will take place in the historical university city of Ghent. Spatial omics technologies are an emerging discipline in scientific research that has been steadily gaining importance over the past few years.
Spatial technologies allow researchers to accurately map out the role of each cell in an organ. In this way, it becomes possible to identify specific biological scenarios to anticipate future developments in, for instance, the environment of cells. This, in turn, can help researchers predict disease outcomes or whether certain cancer cells will be susceptible to a proposed treatment like immune therapy.
The focus of this first edition
This conference will bring together 30 experts from academia and industry who will present their most recent discoveries during the following sessions:
- Spatial transcriptomics
- Spatial proteomics
- Spatial metabolomics
- Multi-omics
- Computational & data analysis integration
- Emerging technologies
Join us on this groundbreaking journey at the VIB Tools & Technologies conference, Spatial Omics, as we delve into the intricate world of spatial technologies—unveiling the secrets of cells and unlocking the door to a future of predictive medicine. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to witness the forefront of scientific discovery and innovation.
