In dryland ecosystems, increased environmental stress often triggers a change from a uniform vegetation cover to patchy ...

The reason why so many tree species can coexist in species-rich forests has long been a subject of debate in ecology. This question is key to understanding the mechanisms governing the dynamics and ...

Tumors contain many different types of cells organized in complex spatial patterns that can influence how the disease progresses. Because of this, it is hard to predict how a tumor will develop and ...

Researchers developed an analytic framework for spatial-omics data that can help to map biological activity within tumors.

Researchers at Helmholtz Munich and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed Nicheformer, the first large-scale foundation model that integrates single-cell analysis with spatial ...
