Batch Effect Correction

Batch Effect Correction

Batch effects come from technical variation across samples. This can often be prevented with good experimental design. When it cannot, there are computational approaches that can help.

Web Resources for Cell Type Annotation

Web Resources for Cell Type Annotation

The advantage of visualizing cell populations at single-cell resolutions has introduced us to the challenges of annotating cells. A growing number of annotation databases and tools are available to aid us in the process. In this article, we provide general guidance for a selected few to assist you with your research.
