This study maps spatial dynamics in early human heart development using single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, identifying cell states and novel features like cardiac fibroblasts and chromaffin cells.

This study creates a comprehensive cell atlas of the first-trimester human brain using single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics, identifying over 600 distinct cell states and their spatial organization.

The paper creates a developmental cell atlas of the human spinal cord using single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, revealing spatiotemporal gene regulation and novel insights into ependymoma cancer stem cells.

The paper creates a comprehensive topographic atlas of early human lung development, identifying cell states, trajectories, and interactions to understand cell heterogeneity origins.

Across 1,176,683 airway and lung cells from 22 datasets, ACE2 rises with age, in males and in smokers' multiciliated cells, and is lowest in young children.

Unspliced versus spliced mRNA in standard scRNA-seq gives RNA velocity, a per-cell vector predicting future state over hours, validated in neural crest and used to trace mouse hippocampal lineages.

The paper maps cell types in the mouse nervous system using single-cell RNA sequencing and identifies distinct astrocyte and oligodendrocyte subtypes with specific molecular and spatial characteristics.
