Vanderbilt University Medical Center researchers to lead AI-powered cancer workshop at AACR 2025 

VUMC’s session will provide a deep dive into how AI-driven 3D spatial molecular and multimodal approaches are transforming the landscape of oncology research.

An AI-driven rendering and analysis of a holotomography-based 3D reconstruction of a tumor tissue sample derived from a spatial molecular experimental platform. Cancer cells (blue), stromal cells (green), and immune cells (red) are highlighted, while the extracellular matrix (ECM) appears in translucent green with a green arrow indicating its orientation. By integrating spatial molecular measurements, this approach offers single-cell and subcellular functional characterization, providing key insights into cellular interactions and communication in a three-dimensional context to deepen our understanding of the tissue’s architecture and composition.
