Hands on spatial gene expression workshop
In partnership with 10x Genomics


10x Genomics and the Applied Spatial Omics Centre (ASOC) jointly host the first workshop dedicated for the analysis of Visium HD and Xenium experiments.

Visium HD enables high-definition spatial transcriptomics, providing researchers with unparalleled resolution to study gene expression within tissue architecture. Xenium offers in situ, single-molecule detection of RNA targets at subcellular resolution, unlocking deeper insights into cellular function and tissue organization. Together, these platforms represent the latest advancements in spatial biology and empower high-resolution mapping of biological complexity!

The workshop will last two days, and we will explore how to process, visualize, and interpret spatial gene expression data to unlock new biological insights.


Venue

  • Date: October 28 - 29, 2025
  • Time: 9:00 A.M. - 4:00 P.M.
  • Location: HS O1500 (day 1) and HS O1501 (day 2)
  • View the floor plan here

Agenda

Day 1: Visium HD Bioinformatics Workshop: Learn how to analyze Visium HD Spatial Gene Expression data from start to finish. We’ll walk through data processing on the 10x Cloud, explore quality metrics with the summary from Space Ranger, and dive into Loupe Browser for cell-type mapping and visualization. You’ll also learn how to get started in using community tools for deeper biological insights from Visium HD data.


Day 2: Xenium Bioinformatics Workshop: Explore the Xenium In Situ Gene Expression data analysis journey from thoughtful panel design to publication quality figures. We’ll cover tools from 10x Genomics and the broader community, showing you how to assess data quality, annotate cell types, integrate multiple samples, and uncover biological insights.
