A spatial pathology company
We bring pathology, spatial biology and computation together to advance the study of tissues.
Discover SPATHOA clearer understanding of tissue starts with seeing how its parts fit together.
SPATHO AB is a Swedish life sciences company focused on spatial pathology. Our work connects the study of tissue structure with the molecular information found within it.
We develop research-use-only software for pathology and spatial biology, with an emphasis on interpretable, reproducible analysis.
Three connected perspectives.
Understanding tissue architecture and the biological context it provides.
Exploring molecular information while preserving its place within tissue.
Developing software and AI methods to support reproducible research.
