TB granuloma spectrum of disease – understanding host-pathogen interactions – Robert Krause

Discover how the Visium platform helped researchers at Africa Health Research Institute (@AHRI_News) uncover insights into tuberculosis. In his talk, Dr. Robert Krause shares their journey with the first Visium CytAssist in Africa, guiding us through every stage of the experiment, from sample preparation to workflow and data analysis.

🔬 How spatial technology aids tuberculosis research, advancing understanding of host–pathogen interaction

Robert Krause, PhD, is a Research Associate at the Africa Health Research Institute (AHRI) in Durban, South Africa. His research focuses on immunological responses in tuberculosis (TB) and HIV, with a particular interest in B-cell biology. As a SANTHE fellow, he is currently exploring B-cell tissue residency in human TB-infected lungs and has established a Visium HD spatial transcriptomic workflow at AHRI.

This presentation was part of the South African 10x Genomics User Group Meeting, in partnership with Diagnostech (@diagnostech3359).
