A bird’s eye view into distributions of numbers
Statistical distributions are mathematical functions that describe the probability of different outcomes. They are at the very core of statistics and data analysis, helping us understand and interpret data, and make predictions about future observations. Let’s delve into these remarkable mathematical constructs further, with a particular focus on why certain distributions are suitable for specific…

Basics of transcriptomics
In our last conversation, we took our first steps into the captivating world of spatial transcriptomics. You might recall that this pioneering field merges the study of gene expression – transcriptomics – with spatial biology, allowing us to explore the inner workings of cells and tissues in their natural three-dimensional context. By doing so, spatial…

An Introduction to Spatial Transcriptomics: A Personal Journey into the World of Spatial Biology
A few years ago at the beginning of my PhD, if you had told me that I’d be captivated by the intricate world of spatial biology, I would have probably chuckled. Back then, when I was able to map the entire kidney for its actin cytoskeletal patterns, mapping several hundreds of RNAs or proteins spatially…
