ABOUT THE EVENT
Please join us if you want to actively contribute to building the next phase of the Human Cell Atlas.
Plenary and small-group discussions will review insights from the initial atlases and cell type annotation efforts and discuss approaches for expanding the diversity of, and access to, HCA Atlases. The sessions will also explore cross-tissue data integration and annotation strategies, and develop a roadmap for incorporating spatial transcriptomics into future Atlas versions.
To maximize audience participation and accessibility, sessions will be live-streamed and made available for on-demand viewing for registered participants on our event site.
