Thanks so much for the great tool! Can we integrate multiple slides from primary and metastatic samples.? I am analyzing N= 30 samples from primary tumor, lymph nodes and lung metastasis. Many thanks Zinn

Hi, Zinn,

It is feasible to apply our tool to multiple samples by analyzing one ST sample at a time. In this way, we will separately account for batch effects between the scRNA-seq reference and each ST sample, making cell type identification results immune to batch effects (both among ST samples and between ST and scRNA-seq ref) and consistent across multiple samples.

best wishes, Jiashun
