Decoding cnidarian cell type gene regulation, now in Nature Ecology and Evolution

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41559-025-02906-1

From a personal POV, tagging along with https://martaig.bsky.social and https://aelek.bsky.social while they developed this project has been one big learning opportunity. In Nematostella biology, clever omics, evo-devo, and more.

Decoding cnidarian cell type gene regulation - Nature Ecology & Evolution

This study reconstructs the gene regulatory networks that define cell types in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis, providing a valuable resource for comparative regulatory genomics and the evolution of new cell types.

Need to integrate #SingleCellOmics datasets? This new paper by SIB's @Carmona et al.
introduces STACAS, a flexible framework to reduce batch effect in #scrna_seq data by taking advantage of prior cell type knowledge https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-45240-z
Semi-supervised integration of single-cell transcriptomics data - Nature Communications

Batch effects hinder multi-sample single-cell data analyses. Here, authors present STACAS, a scalable single-cell RNA-seq data integration tool that uses prior cell type knowledge to preserve biological variability, demonstrating robustness to noisy input cell type labels.
