I'm excited to announce that starting this week CELLxGENE Census supports categorical variables for cell metadata of the now 59M cells . Fetching data will now utilize less memory!! However in some cases the change may break existing code. Details here: chanzuckerberg.github.io/cel…

1/6 The @cziscience team’s preprint on how CZ #CellxGene Discover serves as a centralized hub for standardized, interoperable and openly available #SingleCell matrices is out!
Really proud of what we’re building to address the community’s needs bit.ly/40kFX2W 🧵

Happy to share our latest work (w/ @tagasovska, @stephenrra, @kchonyc, @jkpritch and Aviv Regev) about learning causal representations of single-cell perturbation data sets arxiv.org/pdf/2211.03553.pdf.

Amazing week for #DeepLearning in #spatial #singlecell biology, with 2🔥new Graph Neural Networks methods!
1.STELLAR🇺🇸 @jure: a cell type annotation & discovery atlas-type framework
2.NCEM🇪🇺 @fabian_theis: an approach to infer cellular communication patterns
Deep dive below🧵
Pablo García-Nieto, Ph.D. retweeted
2/n Here, we propose NCEM (nature.com/articles/s41587-0…) and leverage spatial proximity of cells in tissues as a prior for statistical dependency. We use graph neural networks to capture this dependency and relate this statistical phenomenon to cell communication and tissue niches.

Excited to present our new preprint! We sequenced 2.4 million marmoset brain cell nuclei across major neocortical and subcortical structures. Here’s what we learned.

Yesterday was a historic day in plant biotech: a purple tomato engineered with high antioxidants was approved by @USDA @BigPurpleTomato helps prevent cardiovascular disease and fight cancer in humans.
This approval under new regulation ushers in a new era for plant synbio!
