 ### What does this repository provide?
-- **HEST-1k:** Free access to <b>HEST-1K</b>, a dataset of 1,108 paired Spatial Transcriptomics samples with HE-stained whole-slide images 
+- **HEST-1k:** Free access to <b>HEST-1K</b>, a dataset of 1,229 paired Spatial Transcriptomics samples with HE-stained whole-slide images 
 - **HEST-Library:** A series of helpers to assemble new ST samples (ST, Visium, Visium HD, Xenium) and work with HEST-1k (ST analysis, batch effect viz and correction, etc.)
 - **HEST-Benchmark:** A new benchmark to assess the predictive performance of foundation models for histology in predicting gene expression from morphology 
 
 <br/>
 
 ## Updates
 
+- **21.10.24**: HEST has been accepted to NeurIPS 2024 as a Spotlight! We will be in Vancouver from Dec 10th to 15th. Send us a message if you wanna learn more about HEST (gjaume@bwh.harvard.edu). 
+
 - **23.09.24**: 121 new samples released, including 27 Xenium and 7 Visium HD! We also make the aligned Xenium transcripts + the aligned DAPI segmented cells/nuclei public.
 
 - **30.08.24**: HEST-Benchmark results updated. Includes H-Optimus-0, Virchow 2, Virchow, and GigaPath. New COAD task based on 4 Xenium samples. HuggingFace bench data have been updated.
