High-Throughput Dense Reconstruction of Cell Lineages
Rapid advances in CRISPR/Cas9 technology plus next-generation sequencing enable whole-organism cell lineage analysis with genetic barcodes; however, such effort is still in its infancy. Continued innovations are needed in all aspects, from barcode generation to lineage tree modeling and validation. Informative cell lineage analysis will further require a better characterization of cell types, as well as identifying these types in intact tissue. This meeting will focus mainly on technical aspects of innovative cell lineage mapping (rather than cell/tissue physiology), with the goal of accelerating innovations for high-throughput dense reconstruction of cell lineages.
