During Michaelmas Term, OxTalks will be moving to a new platform (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
For now, continue using the current page and event submission process (freeze period dates to be advised).
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Single cell RNA-Seq data is challenging to analyse due to problems like dropout and cell type identification. We present a novel clustering
approach that applies mixture models to learn interpretable clusters from RNA-Seq data, and demonstrate how it can be applied to publicly
available scRNA-Seq data from the mouse brain. Having inferred groupings of the cells, we can then attempt to learn networks from the data. These approaches are widely applicable to single cell RNA-Seq datasets where there is a need to identify and characterise sub-populations of cells.
