Inferring transcriptomic cell states and transitions only from time series transcriptome data

Abstract Cellular stages of biological processes have been characterized using fluorescence-activated cell sorting and genetic perturbations, charting a limited landscape of cellular states. Time series transcriptome data can help define new cellular states at the molecular level since the analysis...
