The paper shows intestinal epithelial zonation arises from self-organization via local cell-cell communication, not external cues or intrinsic programs.

This study identifies cell state variability as a key determinant of SARS-CoV-2 susceptibility by analyzing highly susceptible lung epithelial cells.

The paper maps spatial gene expression and cell type organization in gastruloids, revealing consistent patterns and novel spatial subclusters.

SpaceBar enables clone tracing and spatial transcriptomics profiling by using synthetic barcodes to label cells and analyze gene expression in situ.
