Did you know #lipids control cell identity? Yes, they do! Happy to share our first preprint on #singlecell #lipidomics in collaboration with @gio_dangelo and a fabulous team led by @CapolupoLaura and Irina Khven. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… We used #MALDI imaging mass spectrometry to measure the single-cell lipidomes of hundreds of individual human dermal #fibroblasts. We identify specific lipid metabolic pathways that display cell-to-cell variability. Unexpectedly, single cells clustered by lipid composition!

Excited to release the first preprint from my lab: a new framework to convert existing NGS tube-reactions into spatial techniques using compressed sensing principles and a probabilistic algorithm that we call #Tomographer biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… In the lab we are thrilled about possibilities offered by #spatialomics methods, and a bit impatient... it will take a bit until methods for the different omics are available. That's when we had the idea of using already available low-input protocols to obtain spatial information
