Entry with several datasets #117

Closed Sara-Jager closed 3 years ago

Sara-Jager commented 3 years ago

Dear Single Cell Portal Team,

I am working on a meta analysis where I compare different single cell RNAseq data sets. As part of the manuscript I would like a browser based way for readers to explore the data in each individual data set. I really like the functionality in your "Explore" tab.

Is it possible to make an entry in your database with several data sets for exploration?

Thank you Sara

Hi Sara,

Yes, you can achieve that by creating a study with multiple cluster files and expression files. For example studies that contain multiple datasets, see:

The Single Cell Portal wiki describes how to create studies and annotations, what comprises our various file types, and how those tie into the interactive visualizations shown in the application.

If more information would help, please let me know!

Best regards, Eric

Hi Eric,

That sounds great and thanks for the speedy response.

I will go and explore the wiki page and the studies.

Best regards Sara
