Meet FateMap: A Barcoding Approach to Decode Why Certain Cells Resist Anti-Cancer Therapies
A collaborative research effort led by scientists and engineers at the University of Pennsylvania and Northwestern University led to the development of FateMap, a framework that combines DNA barcoding, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), and computational analysis to study the ‘fate’ or outcomes after exposing cancer cells to therapeutic drugs. It has been found that even…
