   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Mahta Keivani Najafabadi; [2023]
   Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : The protein biomarker expressions in three types of sampled immune INFILTration spatial niches in lung cancer tissue were measured using the new technology Digital Spatial Profiler (DSP).
