Dr. Bava will discuss how fundamental questions in the field of RNA biology fueled the need of developing technologies to co-detect proteins and RNAs in single-cells by masscytometry and split-pool sequencing.
He will then share how a fundamental question in the field of cancer immunology led him to develop (i) a method for super-resolution imaging of subcellular structures and (ii) “STARmap”, an in situ transcriptomics method that enables visualization of 100s of RNAs in thick tissues. Finally, he will describe what it takes to bring in situ transcriptomics to industry, so that many labs in the world would be able to use it, showcasing its use in the study of tumor-microenvironment.
