Launching cell query from Vitessce. #3

Open tsliaw opened 1 year ago

tsliaw commented 1 year ago

In viewing a CODEX dataset in Vitessce, the user observes that abundance of antigen X is high in a particular cell type within the given sample. The user wants to find out if this also the case in other samples of the same tissue. Or if it is also the case in other tissues?

The user would launch such queries directly out of Vitessce by selecting the corresponding cell type and antigen to obtain a list of other datasets with the same cell type and antigen that can be viewed immediately. Without direct visualization support, the user would have to launch a query by selecting cell type and antigen into a separate search UI and additionally would have to provide any contextual information that would already have been available in Vitessce, such as the tissue type.
