As the established model mammal, mouse cells and tissues are a common starting point for discovery in biomedical research and pre-clinical studies. Now, combining spatial transcriptomics [location of gene activity] of millions of cells across whole mouse sections, with a machine learning pipeline that labels cell types and tissues, researchers have made body-wide molecular and cellular analysis possible

BPoD stands for Biomedical Picture of the Day. Managed by the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences until Jul 2023, it is now run independently by a dedicated team of scientists and writers. The website aims to engage everyone, young and old, in the wonders of biology, and its influence on medicine. The ever-growing archive of more than 4000 research images documents over a decade of progress. Explore the collection and see what you discover. Images are kindly provided for inclusion on this website through the generosity of scientists across the globe.
BPoD is also available in Catalan at www.bpod.cat with translations by the University of Valencia.
