Spatial genomics tool maps long-range DNA contacts in intact tissue

Researchers have introduced a spatial genomics method that maps long-range DNA interactions while preserving each cell's position within tissues. The tool aims to reveal how 3D chromatin folding is regulated and changes over time.

• Method captures long-range DNA contacts without losing spatial cell context
• Approach combines spatial genomics with 3D chromatin organization analysis
• Tool could clarify how genome folding is regulated in tissues
