Introducing Count COMET 🧛🧛‍♀️ Happy Halloween! 🎃

Last week our lab came together for our annual lab retreat, kindly hosted by @hlsalliance.bsky.social! We exchanged ideas about our research, spatial omics, and took part in some fun (albeit slightly competitive) activities.

Stunning, what @sabrinalewis.bsky.social just showed at #EMBLSpatialBiology! LeGO depicts cell populations in lung metastases in 3D: www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-6... 🧪 Soon out in npj Imaging @natureportfolio.nature.com

Excited to be at #EMBLSpatialBiology #ESSB2025 this week and present our new 3D imaging and analysis pipeline ‘LeGO-3D’

We’re excited to be at @embl.org this week for Spatial Biology: the melting pot. We’re looking forward to hearing about some awesome science 🔬 #EMBLSpatialBiology

“It actually doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman. That’s why there are so many of us.” ― Jane Goodall 💙 RIP to a real one. My childhood hero

🌟 Yesterday we kicked off #PAW2025 with our first event! Together with DKFZ PDN, we hosted Dr. Susanne Scheer (heiTRACKS) for an inspiring hybrid seminar on career barriers. 40+ postdocs joined onsite & online. More PAW events coming this week – see our program!

I am excited to share my first work in @schapirolab.bsky.social on Multiple Myeloma (MM) in collaboration with the Standal Lab from NTNU Norway. We use Imaging Mass Cytometry (IMC) on bone marrow biopsies from MM and precursor patients (details below): www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

1 week to go!

On September 4 '25, we had the pleasure to welcome Primeminister Kretschmann and Science Minister Olschowksi to our new co-working and seminar rooms. Thanks to all the scientist who presented their work! @hlsalliance.bsky.social Read the full article on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/posts/heidel...

Excited for the Lunaphore user group meeting #EMEA2025 in beautiful Lausanne 💫

A triumph of perseverance from twitterless Tom Weber, Christine Biben and the team, our in vivo barcoding "LoxCode mouse" used to resolve epiblast fate to fetal organs is finally published in @cellpress.bsky.social and available through @jacksonlab.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Sad I missed out on my democracy sausage. Happy voting Australia! #auspol

We hope to see you there!

1/ Ever wondered how to best quantify cell-cell neighbor preferences in tissues? We compared 9+ neighbor preference (NEP) methods for analysing spatial omics data and propose a novel approach that combines the most relevant analysis features which we call COZI 🔬✨ Read more: doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Does anyone have a good universal membrane marker besides NaKATPase and CD98, that ideally stains epithelium/cancer similarly strong as stroma/immune cells? Antibody will be used for spatial proteomics (cyclic IF), goal is a good whole cell segmentation downstream

WEHI Spatial Technology Symposium is back! 🚨 Don’t miss out on the latest in spatial tech—rego below!!!

As I'm looking to transition into science policy, my lab is looking for my replacement! If you are interested in a #postdoc in #epigenetics in #AML with a strong background in cell culture and 10x sequencing, let's talk! I've loved my time at #DKFZ and want to share. #AcademicSky
