Episode 39: Spatial proteomics at Pixelgen
Tune in to hear all about Pixelgen Technologies - creators of a novel technology for doing single-cell spatial proteomics.
We chat about how this fascinating technology works, what you can do with the data and why they chose to develop their analysis suite as an open-source nf-core pipeline.
