Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Cindy Elliott is director of business industry at Esri. This article is more than 2 years old. FEDEX IS ONE OF THOSE COMPANIES ...

To study biological processes, scientists often take snapshots of the molecules in cells, such as proteins and nucleotides, at specific points in time. In spatial biology, they can leverage molecular ...

A new spatial transcriptomic approach captures the regulation of splicing and polyadenylation sites during pubescent brain development at near-single-cell resolution. An international collaboration, ...

This article first identifies the current definition of urban heritage that includes both “old” and “young” monuments. Their protection has also shifted from solely preserving “old” values into a more ...

Scientists have identified a new CAF subset in HNSCC using tissue cytometry and spatial transcriptomics. In two-thirds of cases, head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) require treatment with ...

The evidence is solid but not definitive, as the conclusions rely on the absence of changes in spatial breadth and would benefit from clearer statistical justification and a more cautious ...
