STARmap & Raman Imaging

[BirdMachine]

STARmap - STARmap (Spatially-resolved Transcript Amplicon Readout Mapping) is a biomedical technology that enables the 3D mapping of gene expression within intact tissues at single-cell resolution. It combines hydrogel-tissue chemistry and in situ DNA sequencing to preserve a cell's location and identify which genes are active in that specific spatial context.
Raman Imaging - Raman Imaging is a non-invasive technique that maps the unique chemical fingerprint of biological samples (cells, tissues) by capturing Raman scattering (light interacting with molecular vibrations) at each pixel, creating detailed molecular maps showing the distribution of proteins, lipids, DNA, and water.
