stromal cell pathology, spatial transcriptomics, and organoid biology
About The WeI Lab
Who are we?
We are a functional genomics lab at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School. We employ single-cell RNA-sequencing, spatial transcriptomic, and patient-derived organoids to decipher the stromal context of inflammatory and fibrotic diseases.
