Reconciling organism-scale biology at cellular-scale resolution has been a monumental challenge. Recently, Gramberg et al. uncovered the spatial organisation of gene expression in the common liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica. These data provide new insights and opportunities for understanding the fundamental developmental and functional biology of parasites and new targets for control.
Keywords: Fasciola hepatica; drug resistance; drug targets; genomics; helminths; spatial transcriptomics.
