Scientists use single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to gain insights into cellular heterogeneity within complex tissues. Various technical artifacts can be present in scRNA-seq data and should be assessed before performing downstream analyses. In this Technique Talk, Joshua Campbell will discuss the fundamentals of scRNA-seq analysis and appropriate approaches for handling various challenges.

Image of a woman with her hands across her stomach. She has a look of discomfort on her face. There is a blown up image of her stomach next to her and it has colorful butterflies and gut bacteria all swarming within the gut.

Why Do We Feel Butterflies in the Stomach?

These fluttering sensations are the brain’s reaction to certain emotions, which can be amplified or soothed by the gut’s own “bugs".
