Presenting a recorded conversation from AGBT, where we engage in dialogue with two esteemed guests from the University of Queensland. Collaborating in the realm of virology, they possess a distinctive and invaluable collection of samples—the ones from the 1918 Spanish flu.

In this episode, discover the compelling reasons behind the partnership between a virologist and a spatial omics expert. Together, they embark on a mission to address a pivotal question: Can spatial multiomics be applied to historical samples to unravel the unique aspects of the immune response to the 1918 influenza virus in young adults?

Listen to Will Howat, Vice President of Validation & Technical Quality at Abcam and Alyssa Rosenbloom, Associate Director of Research Proteomics discuss how the GeoMx IO Proteome Atlas panel was developed and validated as part of the Abcam-NanoString partnership. Tune in to this episode and get ready to investigate the expression of 570+ human protein targets on one slide.

Listen how spatial biology brought together a nephrologist and a cancer research graduate student from the University of Oxford to help each other dissect the role played by the immune system in skin and lung cancer and open the way for new immuno-therapy drug targets.
