We have previously developed scPower - a statistical framework that allows users to optimize the power of their experimental design of multi-sample single-cell transcriptomics with a user-friendly interface. However, it requires cell type-specific prior information. Previously this information was available only for selected cell types and tissues. Now with the increasing availability of reference cell atlases available, we can scale our framework to allow experimental design an all known cells of an organism.
We systematically apply scPower wrapped into a data processing and data management infrastructure to obtain the required prior information on cell type-specific gene expression distributions. Based on these systematic priors, a unified experimental design online resource will be established. It will enable researchers to design the most powerful experiments for the identification of differential expression or eQTL in their respective application areas. In future work, this model will further be extended to allow for the optimal design of allele-specific expression and perturbation experiments such as CROP-seq and Perturb-seq.
To develop an online resource for optimal experimental design and power analysis of cell type-specific multisample comparisons and CRISPR screening single-cell transcriptomics experiments.

Here, I will add how the pipeline is built on top of scPower. Also, any parts extended on scPower will be demonstrated here...
In this section, we will show you how to customize the necessary parts for your needs.
Here, installation steps will be explained...
