Astrocytes adopt diverse states in response to brain injuries. Here, the authors develop a platform for spatially resolved, single-cell transcriptomics and proteomics, called tDISCO (tissue-digital microfluidic isolation of single cells for -Omics) to uncover the spatial boundaries of molecularly distinct reactive astrocyte populations in stroke.
