Excited to share a new algorithm that we have been working on over the last year.

💡 idea is to extend mutual nearest neighbors for
#spatial data. We call it spatial mutual nearest neighbors (spatialMNN) 😄

Thank you @haowen-zhou.bsky.social @pratibha-panwar.bsky.social who led this work! 👏 🧬🖥️🧪

Congratulations to @findycang.bsky.social from @jhubiostat.bsky.social who did an amazing job presenting her work at #biodata24 tonight! Preprint coming soon. ☺️

Fantastic poster from @kinnaryshah.bsky.social tonight at #biodata24! She developed the spoon package to correct for the mean variance relationship in #spatial transcriptomics data
