Multi-omic Spatial Delineation of Immunotherapy Response
Dr. Arutha Kulasinghe discusses how single-cell multiomic spatial phenotyping is an invaluable tool to characterize the tumor microenvironment using unbiased whole-slide imaging of metastatic/recurrent HNSCC tumors among patients treated with pembrolizumab/nivolumab. He also explains how using these techniques, his team were able to identify stromal, immune, and metabolic tissue signatures associated with resistance to immunotherapy and poor overall survival.

Tertiary Lymphoid Structures (TLS) in Solid Tumors
Dr. Jessica Da Gama Duarte from Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute presents a protocol for the in situ interrogation and characterization of TLSs in human and murine tissue sections using multiplex immunohistochemistry. This protocol enables simultaneous detection of up to 7 markers (6 antigens and a DAPI counterstain). She also describes a grading system to identify immature and mature TLSs.
