The recent Human Cell Atlas (HCA) 2022 General Meeting, hosted in Vienna, Austria, provided a great opportunity for me to catch up on progress towards the HCA’s goal of mapping every cell type in the human body. I also got the chance to hear presentations that either highlighted new insights gleaned from HCA data or described the outcomes from ongoing collaborations between research groups.
Paradigm4’s Marilyn Matz reflects on the understanding complex biological phenomena has required concurrent advances in experimental methods and computing power.
Single-cell technologies have positioned themselves at the forefront of biomedical research. These platforms allow researchers to bypass the uncertainties of bulk data and instead interrogate biological systems at a level of detail that was previously unreachable. But the value of these systems risks being impaired by bottlenecks in data analysis
Paradigm4 has introduced the ‘Precision Cell Atlas’ as an integral component of its REVEAL: SingleCell app. The Precision Cell Atlas enables scientists to create a custom cell atlas by selectively combining an unlimited number of samples from multiple datasets for specific research objectives and explicitly saving them for collaboration, reuse,
