The Single Cell Unit aims to provide scientific services to the Josep Carreras Institute community and is equipped with cutting-edge technology to apply single-cell technology to basic and translational genomic and transcriptomic studies. Single Cell approaches allow us to identify cell populations that are impossible to isolate with less resolute technologies previously used, such us bulk sequencing, allowing to characterize cell populations and thus identify differences at the genetic and phenotypic level within tumor tissues.
These techniques can, therefore, reveal the cellular heterogeneity of tumors and help identify cells resistant to standard treatments or more prone to proliferate.
