Node-centric expression models (NCEMs): Graph-neural networks reveal communication between cells

01-Nov-2022

How do single cells communicate in a tissue? How can these interactions be modeled, while retaining information of spatial context? Researchers around Fabian Theis from Helmholtz Munich Computational Health Center and Technical University of Munich (TUM) have generated a new method to represent ...

How tiny changes help T cells survive

Essential function of m6A modifications in T cells revealed.

27-Jul-2022

The chemical modification of nucleic acids, known as methylation, exists not only on DNA but also on RNA. So far, it is still unclear whether this methylation is important for certain cell types and what effects it has on the interaction of cells in the body. The most abundant modification on ...

The oat genome unlocks the unique health benefits of oats

Why oats are healthier and cause fewer allergies and intolerances than other cereals

20-May-2022

Researchers have succeeded in sequencing and characterizing the entire genome of oat. Compared to other cereals and humans, the oat genome architecture is very complex. Scientists from Helmholtz Munich, Lund University and the ScanOats network finally elucidated at the genetic level why oats are ...

A light in the dark tissue

Switchable proteins for biomedical imaging

09-Dec-2021

Biomedical imaging is the window through which we can look into organisms. It allows us to see cells, their behavior and localization that would otherwise be hidden. Tracking very few cells over time without damaging them is a key challenge in health research. For this purpose, Helmholtz Munich ...

Fighting blood diseases with artificial intelligence

Largest open-source database for bone marrow cell images developed

24-Nov-2021

How can we better diagnose blood diseases? A research group led by Helmholtz Munich aims to answer this question with artificial intelligence (AI). Their goal is to facilitate the time-consuming analysis of bone marrow cells under the microscope. The researchers developed the largest open-source ...

Revealing the secrets of cell competition

Which features distinguish “winner” from “loser” cells

23-Jul-2021

Cellular competition is a crucial quality control process that ensures that the development of an organism relies on healthy cells. Researchers revealed the secrets underlying cell competition and what features can pre-determine whether a cell will survive or not. Defects in energy production are ...
