Booth #1823
Transform Neural Complexity to Translational Insight at SfN 2026
Visit Bio-Techne Spatial at Booth #1823 to see how RNAscope™ and COMET™ work together to resolve cellular diversity in the brain. Co-detect RNA and protein on the same section, map neuroimmune interactions across the tissue microenvironment, and get more from every precious brain sample, from discovery through translation.
Transform Neural Complexity to Translational Insight
Powered by RNAscope™ and COMET™
- Preserve spatial context: Co-detect RNA and protein to resolve cellular diversity and cell-cell interactions across the neural microenvironment.
- Uncover disease mechanisms: Identify the molecular drivers of neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory disease.
- Build translational confidence: Advance discoveries with a fully automated, reproducible workflow.

BaseScope™ Duplex Fluorescent Assay for Automated Spatial Detection
Now available in a manual fluorescent duplex format, BaseScope™ lets you visualize short targets, exon junctions and splice variants with single-cell resolution in tissue. See it in action at our Saturday poster on dystrophin isoform detection, or stop by Booth #1823 to learn more.

Joanna Kowal, Ph.D.
Senior Scientific Affairs Manager
Bio-Techne Spatial
Joanna completed her Master's degree in biotechnology from Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland. Afterwards she joined Institut Curie, Paris, France, where she developed a proteomic cartography of extracellular vesicles in the frame of her Ph.D. research project. She obtained a Ph.D. degree from Université Paris Descartes in 2016. During her postdoctoral training at the University of Lausanne, Joanna interrogated the interactions within the tumor microenvironment with a focus on crosstalk between immune and malignant cells in the context of primary brain tumors. She joined Lunaphore in 2020 and since then works on bringing spatial biology to every laboratory.
