WebAtlas pipeline for integrated single cell and spatial transcriptomic data

github docs biorxiv zenodo

Single cell and spatial transcriptomics illuminate complementary features of tissues. However, the online dissemination and exploration of multi-modal datasets is challenging. We introduce the WebAtlas pipeline for user-friendly sharing and interactive navigation of integrated datasets. WebAtlas unifies commonly used atlassing technologies into the cloud-optimised Zarr format and builds on Vitessce to enable remote data navigation. We showcase WebAtlas on the developing human lower limb to cross-query cell types and genes across single cell, sequencing- and imaging-based spatial transcriptomic data.

Reproducibility

Reproducibility is a major principle underpinning the scientific method. We make publicly available the raw data and analysis scripts associated with each collection.

Developmental

The Human Developmental Cell Atlas (HDCA) aims to generate a comprehensive profile of cell types and states present during development. This detailed study of development will be critical for understanding congenital and childhood disorders, as well as ageing.
