HippoGenes Toolbox: Transcriptomic and Cellular Mapping of the Human Hippocampus

Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre 

The hippocampus is a unique cortical structure, key to understanding brain function and plasticity. Unravelling its complex organization requires the integration of multiscale data, linking molecular features to macroscale hierarchies. Gene and cell type expression are fundamental microscale phenotypes, and their profiling can provide a reference description of how microstructural features are distributed across the brain. Post-mortem samples, however, are often discontinuous and have limited spatial coverage, thus potentially overlooking fine-grained information. Here, we charted gene and cell type expression patterns within the hippocampus with unprecedented resolution.
