Australian BioCommons together with QCIF Ltd and SIH, University of Sydney have a couple of upcoming events on spatial omics.
We'd love to see you and your colleagues there. Please feel free to share these with your networks.
Webinar: Getting started with spatial omics
Spatial omics provides unprecedented opportunities for the understanding of cells, tissues and systems by combining omics and imaging technologies. This webinar provides a starting point from which to navigate the evolving field of spatial omics and the numerous methods available. We’ll begin with an overview of spatial omics and how it differs from other omics methods. We then explore considerations for analysis of spatial omics data, compare and contrast available tools and delve into some of the theory behind the bioinformatics.
10 September 2025, 12pm AEST
Workshop: Spatial omics
This hands-on workshop will show you how to analyse data from in situ spatial (e.g. CosMx, Xenium) experiments with Seurat in R to visualise gene expression within tissue samples. Using real-life experimental data we step through the process of reading in data, quality control, filtering, dimensionality reduction, visualisation and differential expression analysis. We will discuss the ‘why’ behind each step and essential best practices for designing and running spatial omics experiments.
When: 28 -29 October 2025
