MoleculeExperiment

MoleculeExperiment contains functions to create and work with objects from the MoleculeExperiment class for analysing molecule-based spatial transcriptomics data.

Key Features:

• MoleculeExperiment class: A new class for storing and working with molecule-level spatial transcriptomics data.
• Vendor standardisation: Provides standardised data formats across spatial transcriptomics vendors.
• Platform compatibility: Supports Xenium by 10X, Cosmx SMI by Nanostring, and Merscope by Vizgen.

Scientific Applications:

• Molecule-level spatial transcriptomics analysis: Enables researchers to analyse spatial transcriptomics data at the molecule level rather than aggregated spot or cell levels.

Methodology:

The tool creates and manipulates MoleculeExperiment class objects for molecule-based spatial transcriptomics data analysis.
