transcriptome

Who’s who in the respiratory landscape

A metatranscriptomics method developed by Vanderbilt researchers simultaneously characterizes viruses, microbiome and host response in nasal swabs, opening opportunities to explore molecular interactions directly in clinical samples.

Michelle Southard-Smith, PhD, Aaron May-Zhang, PhD, and colleagues have created a molecular ‘atlas’ of genes expressed by the neuronal cells within the intestine that coordinate the functions of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

Researchers create molecular ‘atlas’ of GI tract neurons

Researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Center have generated the first comprehensive molecular “atlas” of genes expressed by the neuronal cells within the intestine that coordinate the functions of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
