Researcher Asano from DMPK BU to deliver Presentation about Spatial Transcriptomics at the 40th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society for the Study of Xenobiotics

2025.10.17

Our researcher, Shinya Asano from the DMPK Business Unit, will deliver an invited presentation about spatial transcriptomics at the 40th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society for the Study of Xenobiotics, to be held from October 20 to 23, 2025, in Kyoto prefecture, Japan.
If you plan to attend the conference, we encourage you to join the session and hear the presentation.

Conference Name: the 40th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society for the Study of Xenobiotics

Date & Time:October 22, 8:30-11:00 (JST)

Location: Kyoto International Exhibition Hall “Miyako Messe”
Symposium7, Basic course of pharmacokinetics on cross-disciplinary

Title: From basics to breakthroughs: a comprehensive guide to spatial transcriptomics and its data journey

Presentation number: SY7-3

Presentation Summary
Spatial transcriptomics is a rapidly evolving omics technology that analyzes gene expression together with its spatial context. It captures the spatial heterogeneity and cellular interactions within the tissue microenvironments, helping uncover insights into biological phenomena that were not previously detectable. Owing to these advantages, spatial transcriptomics is expected to play a key role in target discovery and biomarker identification across a wide range of disease and drug discovery research.
In this presentation, I introduce an overview of spatial transcriptomics technologies and analysis approaches. I also discuss the challenges and key considerations for obtaining meaningful insights, illustrated with practical examples.
