scRNA-seq data analysis

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analyzes the gene activity of individual cells, revealing how each cell functions and interacts within a tissue. It involves isolating individual cells, capturing their gene messages (RNA), and sequencing these to identify which genes are active. The data then undergoes computational steps to group similar cells, identify different cell types, and understand how their functions change in health or disease. This approach provides a detailed map of cellular diversity and behavior, helping scientists understand complex biological processes at a single-cell level.
