Researchers from Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University, BGI-Research and collaborators report in Science a multimodal spatiotemporal atlas of how disseminated liver cancer cells colonize the lung. Using Stereo-seq with single-cell multiomics, the study maps rare early metastatic cells and identifies transient immune-evasion mechanisms that may inform future anti-metastasis strategies. https://t.co/WAVJ5NDw9r

The passing of Japanese mystery novelist Keigo Higashino from colon cancer is sad news and a reminder of the continuing global burden of colorectal cancer. Early detection matters. Non-invasive genomic screening can help identify colorectal cancer and pre-cancerous changes earlier. https://t.co/4vMCfJkRg3

BGI-Research and collaborators at Shanxi Medical University reported a single-cell multi-omics atlas of the human nasal mucosa, profiling over one million cells to compare allergic rhinitis and non-allergic rhinitis. The study highlights epithelial–stromal communication as a key axis in allergic rhinitis and demonstrates the value of single-cell multi-omics for understanding complex inflammatory disease. https://t.co/KafNUx4YF0

The eyes can reveal more than vision. BGI Group has launched a multimodal eye imaging platform designed to support whole-body health screening through non-invasive, AI-powered analysis of ocular data. By integrating external eye imaging, fundus photography, OCT/OCTA, eye-tracking, and biometric measurement, the platform helps identify health risk signals related to eye disease, cardiovascular health, metabolic conditions, and neurological status. https://t.co/6PqrKbSFR3
