What's new with Xenium In Situ Spatial Transcriptomics?
© 2025 EPFL
Join us for a Lunch and Learn seminar co-organized by the Histology Core Facility (PTH) and 10x Genomics.
Xenium (available at the Histology Core Facility) is an end-to-end platform from 10x Genomics that enables high-throughput subcellular mapping of up to 5,000 genes alongside multiplexed protein in the same tissue section. Compatible with fresh frozen (FF) and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues, the platform includes the Xenium Analyzer, a versatile and easy-to-use instrument; sensitive and specific chemistry; multimodal cell segmentation; a diverse menu of customizable panels; and software. Data can be visualized with the intuitive Xenium Explorer or community developed analysis tools. As with other 10x Genomics products, the Xenium platform has a robust roadmap to enhance the core platform with more capabilities and analytes.
