Abstract  

Spatial omics reveals micro-environment interactions and spatial heterogeneity between cells from a molecular perspective, which plays an important role in neuroscience, cancer research and developmental biology. The spatial omics technology has received a lot of academic attention, but it has been developing in a monopolistically competitive environment. Based on the overall situation of the global and Chinese patent applications of the spacial omics technology, this paper analyzes the trends, technical themes, application sources and main applicants of the global and Chinese patent technologies in this field, and summarizes the development status of the key technologies. At the same time, based on the above analysis, some suggestions are put forward on the technical breakthrough and development mode in the field of spatial omics.



Key wordsSpatial omics      Spatial transcriptome      In situ hybridization      In situ sequencing      Laser capture microdissection
