Analyzing Spatial Transcriptomics Data Using Giotto.

ABSTRACT: Spatial transcriptomic technologies have been developed rapidly in recent years. The addition of spatial context to expression data holds the potential to revolutionize many fields in biology. However, the lack of computational tools remains a bottleneck that is preventing the broader utilization of these technologies. Recently, we have developed Giotto as a comprehensive, generally applicable, and user-friendly toolbox for spatial transcriptomic data analysis and visualization. Giotto implements a rich set of algorithms to enable robust spatial data analysis. To help users get familiar with the Giotto environment and apply it effectively in analyzing new datasets, we will describe the detailed protocols for applying Giotto without any advanced programming skills. © 2022 Wiley Periodicals
