Single Cell Technologies : A Bioinformatician’s perspective
- 👤 Speaker: Dr Abigail Edwards, Cancer Research UK Cambridge Institute
- 📅 Date & Time: Thursday 10 November 2022, 14:00 - 15:00
- 📍 Venue: Zoom meeting
Abstract
In recent years single cell technologies have taken off moving from niche studies to mainstream tools for exploring our biology. They have allowed us to gain a far more granular knowledge of the landscape of the tissues we are studying and uncover the intricacies of the heterogeneity it was previously difficult to pull apart.
However, this increased resolution doesn’t come without its pitfalls (and money traps). As in any new field opinions are ever changing, methods are moving quickly, and it can be difficult to determine how you should design and analyse your experiment.
As a part of the Bioinformatics Core at the CRUK Cambridge Institute, Dr Edwards regularly collaborates on single cell experiments and teaches single cell RNA Seq analysis methods at the Bioinformatics training facility at the University of Cambridge. She will discuss the current state of the field and how to get the best out of your single cell experiment.
