Spatial Cell Type Domain Detection

Given a spatial slide with cell type annotations, the goal is to identify regions with homogeneous cell type compositions. For example, with a slide containing two distinct cell types, we aim to identify regions such as: Region 1: only cell type A Region 2: composed of both cell type A Read More

Cell Type Prediction via MetaReference

Cell type annotation is a critical step in scRNA-seq data analysis that allows scientists to gain deeper insight into identifying the cell types that drive a biological process. However, the task of accurately assigning cell type labels to individual cells remains a challenge due to the need to navigate the Read More

Progressive plasticity in colorectal cancer metastasis: a comprehensive analysis with Talk2Data

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most prevalent cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide [1]. Progressive plasticity refers to the ability of cancerous cells to adapt their state, phenotype, and molecular characteristics in response to environmental stimuli. This plasticity significantly contributes to the metastasis of cancerous Read More

GPU-Accelerated Spatial Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis for Spatial Domain Detection in Ovarian Cancer

Authors: BioTuring Team Spatial omics have revolutionized our understanding of gene expression patterns across tissues and organs, enabling the study of spatial domains—regions defined by distinct biological processes and cell type compositions. Here, we present a novel approach for detecting spatial domains using Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA-https://bmcbioinformatics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1471-2105-9-559) Read More

A custom Cellpose model for H&E images

TLDR: We released a specialized model of TuringSegment for H&E images. Our model outperforms the original Cellpose model by a large margin, achieving approximately 40 percentage points higher AP50 on the Panuke and 48 for Nuinsseg datasets, and 43 percentage points higher on the Monuseg dataset. The model has been Read More
