PRTS: predicting single-cell spatial transcriptomics from histological images
ResearchPeer-Reviewed Publication
A team led by Prof. Fei Ling from South China University of Technology developed PRTS (Pathology-driven Reconstruction of Transcriptomic States), a deep learning framework that predicts single-cell-resolution spatial transcriptomics directly from H&E-stained histology images.

Tracing the quick synthesis of an industrially important catalyst
Tokyo Metropolitan UniversityPeer-Reviewed Publication
Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have successfully traced the mechanism behind how an industrially important “superbase” catalyst is synthesized in a faster, microwave-assisted reaction. They took measurements using X-rays while the reaction occurred, uncovering how small precursor molecules were formed first before they clustered to create the final product. Their insights promise finer control over a promising technology for speeding up chemical synthesis in industry.
