Applying single-cell and single-nucleus genomics to studies of cellular heterogeneity and cell fate transitions in the nervous system
摘要
Single-cell and single-nucleus genomic approaches can provide unbiased and multimodal insights. Here, we discuss what constitutes a molecular cell atlas and how to leverage single-cell omics data to generate hypotheses and gain insights into cell transitions in development and disease of the nervous system. We share points of reflection on what to consider during study design and implementation as well as limitations and pitfalls.
