Giotto Suite Debuts as Technology-Agnostic Platform for Spatial Multiomics

The open-source R suite consolidates fragmented spatial-omics workflows into a single, scalable tool.

Overview

  • Researchers at Icahn Mount Sinai, Boston Medical Center, and Boston University detailed the platform in Nature Methods on October 1.
  • The modular ecosystem integrates multiscale RNA and protein data from diverse spatial technologies and resolutions.
  • Users can begin analyses from multiple entry points with end-to-end tools for integration, analysis, and visualization.
  • The initial release includes only a subset of methods, with planned feature expansion, greater interoperability with external packages, and training support.
  • The software is freely available at giottosuite.com, with early applications planned in cancer and neurodegenerative disease studies.
