Analyzing your single-cell data by mapping to a reference atlas? Then how do you know the mapping actually worked, and you’re not analyzing mapping-induced artifacts? We developed mapQC, a mapping evaluation tool www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... from the ‪@fabiantheis lab. Let’s dive in🧵

Amazing work by the GBM-SPACE team atlassing one of the deadliest cancers #glioblastoma at multimodality, & coupled the elegant scDORI framework.
These studies reveal a high-resolution spatiotemporal cell trajectory from tumour heterogeneity & plasticity at both cellular and molecular levels

Ever wondered what a snapshot of single-cell/spatial dataset can reveal?

Incredibly exciting datasets on host-microbe interactions in the lung.

Pls RT and reach out if you are interested.

Thrilled to share our new @naturecomms.bsky.social study with @sam-n-barnett.bsky.social on early vs late #COVID19 lung damage 🫁.
Using single-cell & histopathology-informed #SpatialTranscriptomics, we uncovered key biomarkers & immune patterns. Thanks to collaborators, UKCIC & @humancellatlas.org

Absolutely Amazing!!

It was a pleasure to give a talk at the #HCA2024Asia @humancellatlas.org meeting. I really enjoyed catching up with some @sangerinstitute.bsky.social alumni and had some fascinating discussions with amazing scientists!!
