A categorization of spatial transcriptomics methods for cell-cell communication analysis.
Cell-cell communication (CCC) is involved in regulating cellular behavior in tissues. Spatial transcriptomics adds local context to gene expression, enabling more biologically grounded CCC inference than single-cell RNA-seq alone. Rapid method development has yielded diverse CCC methods, each addressing distinct biolog...
