Context-dependent spatial multicellular network motifs for single-cell spatial biology

Amos Zamir, Yael Amitay, Yuval Tamir, Leeat Keren, Assaf Zaritsky

The paper introduces CISM, a method to identify spatial multicellular motifs associated with disease states in single-cell spatial data, showing they outperform existing methods in predicting disease states in TNBC and melanoma.
