CellexalVR: A virtual reality platform to visualize and analyze single-cell omics data

Summary: Single-cell RNAseq is a routinely used method to explore heterogeneity within cell populations. Data from these experiments are often visualized using dimension reduction methods such as UMAP and tSNE, where each cell is projected in two or three dimensional space. Three-dimensional project...
