A multifaceted technology platform to enhance single cell genomics

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

A major limitation of traditional cellular studies is that they scrutinise DNA or RNA extracted from thousands of cells, resulting in a population average of what is there. This blunt approach misses key differences and interactions between cells in populations. This project aims to build capacity within the Ramaciotti Centre Consortium for single cell genomics by acquiring equipment for enhanced sorting or spatial mapping of single cells. This will enable innovative science across diverse fields including industrial biotechnology, environmental microbiology, neurobiology, and biosecurity and ensure that Australian researchers remain at the forefront of single cell genomics in organisms ranging from bacteria to animals to humans.
