The triumphs and limitations of computational methods for scRNA-seq | Nature Methods

November 10, 2021

Liked this @KharchenkoLab review – in particular, the descriptions of the various low-dimensional approximations & the simple motivation for these using PCA. Also, found the step-by-step workflow in the text & figures helpful.

Note also the reference to expression entropy for determining the direction in trajectories.
