1/ After a huge team effort, we’re thrilled to share our latest study exploring the tumour microenvironment in NSCLC 🎯We integrated spatial proteomics, transcriptomics, and machine learning to uncover how the architecture and metabolism of the TME relate to patient outcomes.🧵👇

Did you catch the @Qld_SBC on @Channel9?

@aruthak shared an exciting world-first discovery! His team has profiled hundreds of proteins & thousands of gene messages from just a single tissue slide, using samples from 84 patients with head & neck cancer. https://t.co/M6AT900Q8O

[Translational Research Institute Australia @TRI_info]

Cellular keys to cancer survival/treatment resistance have been unlocked. Scientists including TRI-based @aruthak mapped the tissue microenvironment to identify immune cells linked to living longer with disease in remission. The work is in The @australian. https://t.co/tV92qHJYOj

[Wesley Research Institute @WesleyResearch]

In a world-first discovery from the @Qld_SBC , doctors can now check hundreds of markers in a single biopsy to show which treatments, like #immunotherapy, #chemotherapy or #radiotherapy, will work best for patients with head and neck #cancer.

@aruthak sat down with the @AACR to talk all things spatial biology.

His team at @Qld_SBC are using cutting-edge spatial biology approaches to gain deeper insights into patient biopsies and surgical resections across a range of tumour types.

Members of WRI had the pleasure of attending the Art of Medicine exhibition at @gabbaart. An inspiring initiative exploring the intersection of science, art, and wellbeing in medicine. We were proud to showcase three high-resolution #spatialbiology images from @Qld_SBC

[Wesley Research Institute @WesleyResearch]

In a feature in @NatureBiotech, @aruthak from the @Qld_SBC , discusses the future of spatial biology and the transformative spatial transcriptomics tools that are hitting the market.
