Identifying differentially expressed genes by scRNA-seq
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) comprises a state-of-the-art technology for analysing the gene expression profile of individual cells from a complex or even a uniform specimen. Differential gene expression analysis and […]
UMAP
Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP) is a dimensionality reduction technique to construct graphs showing the complexity of specimens and how the cell clusters diverse between each other according to […]
Next generation sequencing basics – RNA
RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) is a technique that utilises next-generation sequencing to investigate gene expression in cells by quantifying the presence and amount of RNA reads within a sample. This allows scientist […]
Experimental design for single cell analysis
It is challenging to create generalizable designs for single-cell transcriptomic experiments because each one requires the user to make informed decisions in order to obtain interpretable results. These include the […]
