Researchers at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia have created an artificial intelligence tool called CelloType.
This tool aims to improve the identification and classification of cells within complex tissue samples, an advancement that could transform the understanding of diseases like cancer and chronic kidney disease. The study detailing CelloType was published in the journal Nature Methods.
According to a Nov. 25 news release, CelloType is designed to address the growing need for advanced tools in the field of spatial omics. Spatial omics combines molecular profiling with spatial data to map the location and interaction of molecules within cells. This process provides a deeper understanding of how diseases develop at the cellular level, potentially leading...
