The Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University recently announced a cross-institutional consortium to map neural circuits within the brain to improve understanding of neuropathological disorders. The consortium will be conducted under a $21 million contract from the ...

High-throughput single-cell transcriptomics offers an unbiased approach for understanding the extent, basis and function of gene expression variation between seemingly identical cells. Here, a team led by researchers at Harvard University and the Broad Institute of MIT sequenced single-cell RNA-seq ...

Fluorescent in situ sequencing from Wyss Institute on Vimeo. In biology, as in real estate, location matters. Working copies of active genes — called messenger RNAs or mRNAs — are positioned strategically throughout living tissues, and their location often helps ...
