Am I back from the best conference ever? Yes! But do I also see a crucial tool for the analysis of the #ECMatrix in scRNAseq? Also yes!! Another fantastic tool in collaboration with @nabalabuic.bsky.social 🔥🔥🔥

Had great time in GRC Fibronectin and related molecules (my lab representing the latter 😁) in Tuscany and presented our latest work. Also, new and old friends were found!
