About
Anna Lundmark is a leading figure in the development of scalable, high-throughput genomics technologies, with a primary focus on spatial transcriptomics and single-cell RNA-sequencing. Her most influential work, the 2016 paper "An automated approach to prepare tissue-derived spatially barcoded RNA-sequencing libraries" (75 citations), introduced a critical innovation for the field. By automating the preparation of spatially barcoded libraries, Lundmark directly addressed a major bottleneck in tissue heterogeneity research—the need for robust, reproducible, and high-throughput protocols. This contribution has been foundational for labs seeking to transition from manual, low-yield methods to automated systems capable of handling complex tissue samples. Her work has accelerated the study of cellular microenvironments, enabling researchers to map gene expression within intact tissues with unprecedented precision. Lundmark’s impact lies in her ability to transform a conceptually powerful technique into a practical, scalable tool, making spatial transcriptomics more accessible to the broader scientific community and paving the way for deeper insights into development, disease, and tissue organization.
