Driving those advances are techniques for isolating thousands of intact cells from living organisms, efficiently sequencing expressed genetic material in each cell, and using computers, or labeling the cells, to reconstruct their relationships in space and time.
推动这些进步的技术有从活的生物体中分离出数千个完整的细胞,对每个细胞中表达的遗传物质进行有效测序,以及使用计算机或对细胞进行标记,以重建它们在空间和时间上的关系。
That technical trifecta “will transform the next decade of research,” says Nikolaus Rajewsky, a systems biologist at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in Berlin.
柏林马克斯·德尔布吕克分子医学中心的系统生物学家尼古拉斯. 拉杰斯基说,这种技术上的三步走“将改变未来十年的研究”。
