The present disclosure generally relates to spatial detection of a nucleic acid, such as a genomic DNA or a RNA transcript, in a cell comprised in a tissue sample. The present disclosure provides methods for detecting and/or analyzing nucleic acids, such as chromatin or RNA transcripts, so as to obtain spatial information about the localization, distribution or expression of genes in a tissue sample. The present disclosure thus provides a process for performing “spatial transcriptomics” or “spatial genomics,” which enables the user to determine simultaneously the expression pattern, or the location/distribution pattern of the genes expressed or genes or genomic loci present in a single cell while retaining information related to the spatial location of the cell within the tissue architecture.

The invention(s) cover a composition, where units of the composition are configured to interact with each other (e.g., as neighbors) in order enable decoding of positions of captured target material relative to neighboring units of the composition. In embodiments, the composition includes: a body; and a set of molecules coupled to the body, the set of molecules comprising a first subset and a second subset, wherein the first subset is structured for target analyte capture, and wherein the second subset is structured for interactions with one or more neighboring objects. The invention(s) also cover systems incorporating one or more units of the composition and methods implementing units of the composition.
