Scanpy-Workshop

The technology of single-cell RNA sequencing opened a new chapter in the study of single-cell biology. However, examining the transcriptome of thousands of cells also required new software "tools". dr Maren Büttner, postdoc in Thei's group and research member in ForInter, designed a two-day workshop in the form of a webinar for ForInter scientists on the subject of data analysis of single cells with Scanpy.

One of these "tools" for data analysis is the fast and scalable Python-based software Scanpy, which was developed by the working group of Fabian Theis, project leader in ForInter. dr Maren Büttner, postdoc in Thei's group and research member in ForInter, designed a two-day workshop in the form of a webinar for ForInter scientists on the subject of data analysis of single cells with Scanpy. Not only biological background knowledge of single cell sequencing was expected, but also basic programming knowledge in Python, an understanding of statistics as well as data visualization and interpretation.
