Happy to share our latest paper with @marekkoki on SPLASH2 for ultra-efficient reference-free discovery directly on raw sequencing reads out in @NatureBiotech, supervised by @SalzmanLab and @sdeorowicz, and with great contributions from @TBaharav. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Congratulations to everyone involved in four highly collaborative multi-tissue @HumanCellAtlas studies in @ScienceMagazine today, which bring the HCA goal of mapping every cell type in the human body a milestone step closer. humancellatlas.org/multi-tissue-c…

BREAKING NEWS The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the 2023 #NobelPeacePrize to Narges Mohammadi for her fight against the oppression of women in Iran and her fight to promote human rights and freedom for all. #NobelPrize

Our August issue is live! 🎉 nature.com/nmeth/volumes/… On the cover, a benchmarking study assessed 16 bioinformatics tools for their abilities to capture true-positive and false-positive circular RNAs. Cover by @DrawImpacts.

A large-scale study from @jvdesomp and colleagues benchmarks computational tools for circRNA detection, as well as provides a resource of 315,000 unique putative circRNAs detected in 3 human cell types. nature.com/articles/s4159…

ReadZS, from @ea_meyer, Chaung, @roozbehdn & Salzman, for identifying RNA processing (splicing, alternative polyadenylation etc) in RNA-seq data, without the need for pre-existing annotations. It works on both 3'-enriched and non-enriched data genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Out today in @ScienceMagazine, the Tabula Sapiens is 1 of 4 new open-access cross-tissue human cell atlases. This is a major milestone for #singlecell biology, giving us a deeper understanding of the human body and the diseases that afflict it. bit.ly/3FFbMsZ

Researchers with the #HumanCellAtlas consortium report a major feat: the creation of detailed maps of more than a million individual cells across 33 organs, representing the most comprehensive, cross-tissue cell atlases to date. Learn more in Science. ➡ fcld.ly/23zpp4g

A big day for life science The Tabula Sapiens, like a Periodic Table of Human Cells, ~500,000 cells analyzed, 24 tissues / organs @ScienceMagazine "a broadly useful reference to deeply understand and explore human biology at cellular resolution" science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

We are happy to announce the release of the Tabula Sapiens track for the human assembly GRCh38/hg38. This track collection covers ~500,000 cells from a total of 24 human tissues and organs using single-cell RNA-sequencing. Read more about the release at: bit.ly/3qUv9s5

🫁 First draft of the @humancellatlas Lung Cell Atlas integrates 14 #SingleCell data sets from the global scientific community, including European Commission @discovAIR_HCA project, @ChanZuckerberg Seed Networks, @czbiohub + more. Read the preprint bit.ly/3KFUmOr
