Hi all. Frank passed peacefully with the love of his family on July 18, 2025 in London, ON. He was a wonderful human being who shared much of his life with you. We could not have asked for a better father, grandfather, friend, colleague, or mentor. 1/

Another example of the different results one gets from a Scanpy vs. Seurat analysis, in this case a Visium HD dataset from academic.oup.com/bioinformati...
13 vs. 20 clusters. And qualitatively different results, corroborating what we saw in biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
