Giotto Suite Expands: New Tools for Spatial Omics Data Analysis
The Giotto Suite, a potent tool for analyzing molecular tissue structure, is set for an expansion. Developed by researchers from Mount Sinai, Boston Medical Center, and Boston University, this software simplifies complex spatial data analysis and adapts to diverse workflows. The current version is planned to be refined based on community feedback.
Giotto Suite is a modular package offering end-to-end solutions for multi-scale and multi-omic data analysis, integration, and visualization. Its flexible structure allows users to start their analysis from various points, depending on their research needs. The software is designed to help scientists extract insights from data generated by spatial omics technologies, working with spatial data from different platforms and supporting a wide range of analysis. It will be applied in the researchers' own studies in cancer and neurodegenerative disease. The team plans to enhance the platform's interoperability with other software packages and provide training and support to the research community.
The Giotto Suite is poised for expansion, with plans to improve its interoperability and offer enhanced support to the research community. This move aims to strengthen its role in aiding scientists to extract valuable insights from spatial omics data, particularly in the fields of cancer and neurodegenerative disease research.
