ABC Hybrid Seminar: Bokai Zhu, PhD – Ragon Institute – “Integration of spatial-omics and single-cell data across modalities with weakly linked features”
Advancements in single-cell and spatial-omics technologies have created a need for integrating datasets across modalities with limited and weakly correlated features, such as those between spatial proteomics and transcriptomics. Existing […]

May ABC Seminar: Jean du Terrail, PhD – Owkin – “Federated Learning in Healthcare in the Real-World: Examples and Practical Challenges”
With the never-ending revolutions of data-driven approaches that started already more than a decade ago, it is surprising at first that the pace of ML discoveries in medicine seems substantially slower than the ones found in consumer applications such as ChatGPT. The answer to that paradox is relatively simple: in healthcare, data is hard to…

March ABC Seminar: Andrew H. Song – Brigham and Women’s Hospital – “Towards 3D pathology – The opportunities and challenges”
Human tissue, which is inherently three-dimensional (3D), is traditionally examined through standard-of-care histopathology as limited two-dimensional (2D) cross sections that can poorly represent the tissue due to sampling bias. To […]

February ABC Seminar: Vitalii Kleshchevnikov, PhD – Wellcome Sanger Institute – “Probabilistic models to resolve cell identity and tissue architecture”
Cell identity drives cell-cell communication and tissue architecture and is in return regulated by cell-extrinsic cues. Cell identity is determined by the combination of intrinsic developmentally established transcription factor use […]

January ABC Seminar: Efrat Muller – Tel Aviv University – “Methods for integrating metagenomics and metabolomics data”
The human gut microbiome, and its metabolic activity in particular, have been implicated in a wide range of disease states, including metabolic disorders, inflammatory bowel diseases, and colorectal cancer. This […]
