Lithuanian company Droplet Genomics presented their technology at @imperialcollege yesterday. A very promising single cell microfluidics company! #singlecell #dropletgenomics

In 2015, an article in @nature estimated that 800,000,000 USD is wasted annually on nonspecific antibodies. It also suggested standardization, which has not happened. I wonder how much we will spend in 2023 on low specificity antibodies.

Spatial transcriptome is the next wave after single-cell RNAseq. Resources to bookmark to get into the field 👇 🧵

There are 20,000 protein-coding genes in the human genome, but nearly 150,000 transcripts. Explore the biological significance of transcript isoforms and how our long-read sequencing protocols for #singlecell and #visiumspatial can help you detect them. 10xgen.com/3W1gyYB

Can we analyze millions of single-cell proteomes? Can we achieve high accuracy & low cost? This @NatureBiotech article nature.com/articles/s41587-0… outlines a path forward. The principle was demonstrated by @slavovLab nature.com/articles/s41587-0…

Comparison of protein & RNA changes with #ageing. This is the lowest RNA to protein correlation (for thousands of genes) that I have seen in a quality dataset. Examining the correlations within an age group, it gets even more interesting ...

I'm SO EXCITED to share our new pre-print! 🥳 You finally got your RNA-seq data. You open RStudio, stare at the screen for 5 mins...And realize you don't even remember how to import a table. How will you analyze your data?!😱We're here to help! A 🧵👇(1/9) biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
