Several projects on the Portal contain bulk RNA-seq data in addition to single-cell/nuclei RNA-seq data. We compared modalities across five solid tumor projects to explore potential biological differences.
July 1, 2025 at 5:06 PM
Using an ontology-based approach, we have assigned consensus cell types to all samples on the ScPCA Portal. They are now included in all processed and merged datasets from the Portal!
