10x-pert Workshop - How to: Single-Nuclei RNA-seq

Shauna Clark

On November 28 we hosted our 6th 10x-pert Workshop: How to: Single-nuclei RNA-seq featuring 10x R&D scientists Sharmila Chatterjee and Paul Ryvkin. Sharmila presented our single-nuclei isolation demonstrated protocol and discussed some of the differences between single-nuclei and single-cell RNA-seq. Paul discussed single-nuclei data analysis and gave a great live demo of Loupe Cell Browser featuring one of our single-nuclei datasets. Following the presentation, Sharmila and Paul answered audience questions during an open Q&A session.

Watch the session recording and find links to single-nuclei and single-cell RNA-seq resources below.
