Oldridge Lab

The Oldridge lab studies the intricate spatial biology of intact tissues, combining cutting-edge spatialomic techniques with advanced computational, statistical, and AI-driven analytic methods. These approaches are used to deeply profile tissues with hundreds to thousands of molecular markers in a spatially detailed manner, in order to better understand the molecular, cellular, and structural basis of human health and disease.
