Applications of our spatial multiplex immunofluorescence services
Our spatial profiling platforms enable deep biological insight across multiple research areas:
Immune Cell Profiling & Co-Localization
Map immune cell populations and their interactions to better understand the mechanisms driving oncology, immunology, and inflammatory disorders.
Biomarker Discovery & Validation
Detect novel biomarkers and verify their relevance for early detection, progression assessment, and precision medicine initiatives.
Tumor Microenvironment (TME) Characterization
Uncover therapeutic targets by visualizing cell–cell communication, immune infiltration, and structural organization within the native TME.
Spatial Signature Development
Generate spatially resolved biomarker signatures that support the creation of new diagnostics, predictive tools, and translational research programs.
