Hundreds of researchers meet to advance spatial biology

In the beginning of October, researchers interested in spatial biology got together in Uppsala for the SciLifeLab Science Summit – one of the main yearly conferences organized by SciLifeLab with a new topic each year.

Spatial Biology is an emerging field driven by recent advances in spatial omics technologies. The aim of the summit was to present examples of such methods to address various research areas in life science, and for the growing spatial biology community to meet and discuss past and future advances.

In the video, Sinem Saka, EMBL group leader; Stefania Giacomello, SciLifeLab and KTH group leader; Arutha Kulasinghe, Senior Research Fellow at the University of Queensland shares their view on the spatial biology field and the event.
