Paper from me, Michelle Curtis, @soumya-boston.bsky.social and co out now in @natmethods.nature.com! We now call it starCAT instead of *CAT but the strategy is the same: Build a catalog of ~50 interpretable T cell gene expression programs + use them to interpret new data nature.com/articles/s41...
Reproducible single-cell annotation of programs underlying T cell subsets, activation states and functions - Nature Methods
TCAT is a pipeline that can simultaneously capture gene expression programs related to T cell subsets and activation states for accurate T cell characterization.

Nature research paper: Precisely defining disease variant effects in CRISPR-edited single cells

go.nature.com/44M3ygX
Precisely defining disease variant effects in CRISPR-edited single cells - Nature
A plate-based assay called CRAFTseq has been developed that uses ‘multi-omic’ single-cell RNA sequencing and direct genotyping of CRISPR edits to test the functional effects of genetic variants on cell state and function.

Check out @saorisakaue.bsky.social ‘s study today demonstrating the differences in early RNA and late RNA eQTLs!
📣Excited to share my last postdoc paper with
@soumya-boston.bsky.social on eQTL mechanisms depending on where the RNA is in the cell! @broadinstitute.org @harvardmed.bsky.social
TL;DR:Early RNA eQTL variants in the nucleus and late RNA eQTL variants in the cytosol have distinct molecular mechanism🧵
