What's a good way of organizing scRNA-seq data for training foundation models?

Say you run 1k experiments and each measures counts for 1M cells with varying metadata and orthogonal data.

Storing these data in one gigantic array isn’t exactly easy.

We wondered whether it’s necessary to train foundation models and found 3 setups that made sense to us.

JUST IN: 7.5 magnitude earthquake strikes Taiwan, rocking the whole island and even causing several buildings to collapse.

The earthquake triggered a tsunami warning of up to 10 feet from Japan.

"Tsunami is coming. Please evacuate immediately. Do not stop. Do not go back," said an NHK anchor.

The city of Hualien on the east coast of Taiwan appeared to sustain significant damage. The city was near the epicenter of the earthquake.

Why was the CEO of $1T Nvidia shopping at a night market in Taipei?

He flew there to give a commencement speech at NTU.

In our latest preprint, the brilliant @XiaoyiLi10: 1) discovers massive influence of chromatin on prime editing & 2) shows epigenetic "pre-treatment" of a locus w/ CRISPRa can markedly enhance prime editing efficiency. See thread below & https://t.co/AnvPEiPCnr for more details!

Excited to share our lab's latest preprint, led by @CXchengxiangQIU, @bethkarenmartin & Ian Welsh of @jacksonlab.

We set out to build a single cell roadmap for all of mouse prenatal development, from single cell zygote to free-living pup.

The next generation of single-cell sequencing methods can be microfluidics-free (but I still love microfluidics).
