As new methods arise to measure d istinct cellular modalities\, including high-dimensional immunophenotypes\ , chromatin accessibility\, and spatial positioning\, a key analytical cha llenge is to integrate these datasets into a harmonized atlas that can be used to better understand cellular identity and function. Here\, we develo p a computational strategy to “anchor” diverse datasets together\, enablin g us to integrate and compare single cell measurements not only across scR NA-seq technologies\, but different modalities as well. After demonstratin g substantial improvement over existing methods for data integration\, we anchor scRNA-seq experiments with scATAC-seq datasets to explore chromatin differences in closely related interneuron subsets\, and project single c ell protein measurements onto a human bone marrow atlas to annotate and ch aracterize lymphocyte populations. Lastly\, we demonstrate how anchoring c an harmonize in-situ gene expression and scRNA-seq datasets\, allowing for the transcriptome-wide imputation of spatial gene expression patterns\, a nd the identification of spatial relationships between mapped cell types i n the visual cortex. Our work presents a strategy for comprehensive integr ation of single cell data\, including the assembly of harmonized reference s\, and the transfer of information across datasets.\n DTSTART:20191015T160000Z DTEND:20191015T170000Z LOCATION:Room 1034\, McIntyre Medical Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3G 1 Y6\, 3655 promenade Sir William Osler SUMMARY:QLS Seminar Series - Rahul Satija URL:/qls/channels/event/qls-seminar-series-rahul-satij a-300852 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
