Besca's publication results

This repository includes notebooks utilized to produce results for the publication on the Besca toolkit (https://github.com/bedapub/besca). Please find additional tutorials and documentation here: https://bedapub.github.io/besca/

To demonstrate how Besca can be applied to a wide variety of biological samples, we reprocessed publicly available single-cell data from ten studies:

Three datasets cover blood- and bone-marrow-derived hematopoietic cells:

Four datasets reveal the intestinal cell composition:

Three datasets are pancreas-derived:
