The idea: model each spot as a bag of cells. 🧬

DeepSpot2Cell combines pathology foundation models + DeepSets neural networks to extract single-cell–level insights from spot data—keeping past experiments relevant and enabling precise cellular analyses.

By extending our recent deep learning method, DeepSpot, to support 10x Genomics Xenium data, we significantly improved single-cell gene expression predictions in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. It is exciting to see its performance validated in an independent evaluation!
