Performing single-cell quality control is a vital step in the data analysis pipeline. Setting QC parameters can significantly affect downstream analysis: too permissive QC filtering makes the dataset too noisy to read, and too stringent QC thresholds may remove important information. In this article, let’s discuss the art of setting […]
Differential expression analysis is a common step in a Single-cell RNA-Seq data analysis workflow. In our previous post, we have given an overview of differential expression analysis tools in single-cell RNA-Seq. This time, we’d like to discuss a frequently used tool – DESeq2 (Love, Huber, & Anders, 2014). According to […]
In this blog, we introduce Venice a non-parametric approach for finding marker genes in single-cell RNA-seq data. Using a widely adopted benchmarking approach (Wang et al. 2019), Venice obtains the best accuracy among 14 other tools. Venice is also the fastest tool among all the benchmarked methods. Venice is open-source, […]
1. An atlas of acute myeloid leukemia at single-cell resolution Adapted from Galan et. al., 2019 Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer characterized by the accumulation of white blood cells in the bone marrow and blood. The disease has been notoriously challenging to study because of its extreme intratumoral […]
