	    Highly multiplexed imaging holds enormous promise for understanding how spatial context shapes the activity of the genome and its products at multiple length scales. Here, we introduce a deep learning framework called CAMPA (Conditional Autoencoder for Multiplexed Pixel Analysis), which uses a conditional variational autoencoder to learn representations of molecular pixel profiles that are consistent across heterogeneous cell populations and experimental perturbations. Clustering these pixel-level representations identifies consistent subcellular landmarks, which can be quantitatively compared in terms of their size, shape, molecular composition and relative spatial organization. Using high-resolution multiplexed immunofluorescence, this reveals how subcellular organization changes upon perturbation of RNA synthesis, RNA processing or cell size, and uncovers links between the molecular composition of membraneless organelles and cell-to-cell variability in bulk RNA synthesis rates. By capturing interpretable cellular phenotypes, we anticipate that CAMPA will greatly accelerate the systematic mapping of multiscale atlases of biological organization to identify the rules by which context shapes physiology and disease.
