Weave-UNISONO / NCN & Swiss SNSF

Project title: Spatial Determinants of Immunotherapy Resistance in Cancer In this project we have outlined a series of experiments to analyze the cellular and transcriptional changes associated with tumor infiltrating immune cells. This research project is highly interdisciplinary implementing single-cell ‘omics’ strategies and systems immunology approaches to further unravel the players and rules governing immune responses during […]

Potocki Foundation Grant

Project title: Genome and transcriptome study of tumours In this project, we plan to apply a state-of-the-art single-cell multimodal profiling method to study eye tumours. Multimodal profiling allows, in a single experiment to obtain detailed multi-layer data that, when analysed using machine and deep learning methods, provide a complete picture of the genotype and phenotype of […]

Science for Society II / MSHE

Project title: Breakthrough single cell profiling method for cancer research The development of targeted therapies, has made the fight against cancer more effective, although their availability is limited due to their high cost. Technological advances and the development of new treatment modalities can reduce the financial outlay for oncotherapy, which in the long term will […]

SONATA BIS 12 / NCN

Project title: Comprehensive, multimodal profiling of chromatin states and gene expression in single cells. The main aim of this project is to develop an experimental protocol to simultaneously measure dozens of histone modifications and DNA-bound proteins, accessibility of the chromatin, and RNA molecules that are polyadenylated (protein coding genes) and non-polyadenylated (regulatory RNAs). This comprehensive […]
