Making 3D MERFISH Available for All Types of Organisms: From Probe Design to Image Analysis

Spatial transcriptomics is rapidly transforming the way researchers study complex biological systems. To explore the latest developments in this fast-moving field, Euro-BioImaging is organising a Special Edition Virtual Pub dedicated to Spatial Transcriptomics on Friday, June 12, from 13:00–15:00 CEST. The event will bring together experts from academia and industry to showcase cutting-edge spatial omics technologies, innovative workflows, and emerging applications. 

At this event, Jonathan Enriquez, Institut de Génomique Fonctionnelle de Lyon (IGFL), will share his work combining advanced high-resolution microscopy with novel approaches from the field of DNA Nanotechnology to push the limits of light microscopy for cell-biological research applications. 

Like all Euro-BioImaging Virtual Pubs, this online event offers an open forum for the imaging community to exchange ideas, discover new technologies, and discuss practical applications with experts from across disciplines. 

Abstract

Making 3D MERFISH Available for All Types of Organisms: From Probe Design to Image Analysis

By: Jonathan Enriquez, Institut de Génomique Fonctionnelle de Lyon (IGFL)

At Spatial Cell ID (SCID), a French national platform, we are developing a comprehensive 3D MERFISH pipeline, from innovative probe design to image analysis, with the objective of deploying this technology across all types of organisms. In this presentation, I will introduce our experimental and computational setup and discuss how we are making 3D MERFISH broadly accessible for diverse biological systems.
