Description

Mapping cell types in their native spatial context using MERFISH, Slide-seq, Visium, STARmap, and other spatial platforms. Includes computational deconvolution and cell-type localization in brain tissue sections. | Gap: Whole-brain spatial coverage at single-cell resolution is missing for human; integration across spatial platforms is immature.

Resolution criteria

Resolution requires: (1) Whole-human-brain spatial transcriptomics at single-cell resolution covering >=5 brain regions; (2) Cross-platform harmonization pipeline achieving >=0.80 correlation; (3) Cell-type localization atlas with >=10 cell types per region; (4) KG edges linking spatial cell types to disease GWAS loci. Deliverable: spatial atlas + harmonization pipeline.
