spatial transcriptomics

The technology supports hypothesis-free gene expression profiling while preserving spatial context, addressing limitations of imaging-based approaches, which are often constrained by predefined gene panels and limited tissue coverage.

Illumina advanced spatial technology enables researchers to access broad transcriptomic profiles alongside localized gene expression patterns at single-cell resolution. This capability provides new opportunities to study spatially defined cell states, tissue architecture, and biological pathways across diverse research applications.

Illumina spatial technology helps researchers overcome the common limitations of existing platforms by resolving the tradeoff between high spatial resolution and whole-transcriptome depth. By enabling detailed mapping across large tissue areas without compromising sensitivity or scalability, the technology delivers clearer insights into cellular behavior and tissue organization.
