Statistical methods for single-cell and spatial RNA-seq
Event Navigation
Dr. Christina Kendziorski’s research concerns statistical methods and software for computational biology and genomics. Her group develops statistical methods and software for the analysis of data from high-throughput genomics experiments and have considerable expertise in the experimental design and analysis of bulk RNA-seq studies and in single-cell RNA-seq. The group also uses high-throughput data from multiple studies to address critical challenges in the treatment of ovarian cancer patients.
Lecture summary:
In this talk, I will discuss our recent work to address challenges in single-cell and spatial RNA-seq data analysis. Specific topics include pre-processing and normalization in droplet-based single-cell RNA-seq studies. I will also discuss challenges unique to spatial RNA-seq experiments with specific focus on data from the Visium10x Genomics platform.
