<Slide-seq> measures <gene expression> with spatial information by transferring tissue-associated <RNA> onto a surface carrying position-mapped barcoded beads. Sequencing associates captured transcripts with bead barcodes and hence with locations. The original study used approximately ten-micrometre beads and demonstrated <tissue> expression patterns at high spatial resolution. A bead measurement is a capture region rather than an automatic identification of one intact <cell>; <tissue> geometry and capture efficiency still affect interpretation. <Slide-seq: A scalable technology for measuring genome-wide expression at high spatial resolution by Samuel G. Rodriques and others>[2019, bead array, barcode-position mapping and tissue demonstrations]{ref}
