Single Cell

This skill should be used when working with single-cell omics data analysis using scvi-tools, including scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq, CITE-seq, spatial transcriptomics, and other single-cell modalities. Use this skill for probabilistic modeling, batch correction, dimensionality reduction, differential expression, cell type annotation, multimodal integration, and spatial analysis tasks.

Single-cell RNA-seq analysis. Load .h5ad/10X data, QC, normalization, PCA/UMAP/t-SNE, Leiden clustering, marker genes, cell type annotation, trajectory, for scRNA-seq analysis.

This skill should be used when working with LaminDB, an open-source data framework for biology that makes data queryable, traceable, reproducible, and FAIR. Use when managing biological datasets (scRNA-seq, spatial, flow cytometry, etc.), tracking computational workflows, curating and validating data with biological ontologies, building data lakehouses, or ensuring data lineage and reproducibility in biological research. Covers data management, annotation, ontologies (genes, cell types, diseases, tissues), schema validation, integrations with workflow managers (Nextflow, Snakemake) and MLOps platforms (W&B, MLflow), and deployment strategies.

This skill should be used when working with genomic interval data (BED files) for machine learning tasks. Use for training region embeddings (Region2Vec, BEDspace), single-cell ATAC-seq analysis (scEmbed), building consensus peaks (universes), or any ML-based analysis of genomic regions. Applies to BED file collections, scATAC-seq data, chromatin accessibility datasets, and region-based genomic feature learning.

Query CZ CELLxGENE Census (61M+ cells). Filter by cell type/tissue/disease, retrieve expression data, integrate with scanpy/PyTorch, for population-scale single-cell analysis.

Infer gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from gene expression data using scalable algorithms (GRNBoost2, GENIE3). Use when analyzing transcriptomics data (bulk RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq) to identify transcription factor-target gene relationships and regulatory interactions. Supports distributed computation for large-scale datasets.

This skill should be used when working with annotated data matrices in Python, particularly for single-cell genomics analysis, managing experimental measurements with metadata, or handling large-scale biological datasets. Use when tasks involve AnnData objects, h5ad files, single-cell RNA-seq data, or integration with scanpy/scverse tools.
