Discover how to uncover cell type-specific gene regulation in mammalian tissues using single cell genomics
Join us on Thursday, June 18, to learn about the latest approaches in single nucleus transcriptomics and ATAC-Seq
1 Jun 2020
Transcriptional regulation plays a fundamental role in tissue development, function and disease. However, tissue heterogeneity poses a significant challenge for elucidating cell type-specific gene regulatory programs. By integrating nuclei sorting into workflows for both single nucleus RNA-Seq and single nucleus ATAC-Seq, it is possible to generate large scale datasets to deconvolute the cellular composition of tissues, identify rare cell populations and define cell type-specific transcriptional regulatory processes.
Join this webinar presented by Dr. Sebastian Pressl, Associate Director of Single Cell Genomics, to learn about the latest approaches in single nucleus transcriptomics and ATAC-Seq, and how they can be used on flash-frozen primary human and mouse tissues to decipher tissue-specific epigenetic regulation. There will also be a discussion of case studies on the generation of an atlas of regulatory elements in the mouse brain, and the possible role of epigenetic regulation in SARS-CoV-2 cell entry into human lung cells.
