Jin's poster at The Biology of Genomes 2022

Jin will be presenting his poster “Single cell atlas of the human retina” at The Biology of Genomes 2022 from May 10 to May 14.

Single-cell technologies have become powerful tools for studying cellular components, transcriptome relationships, and regulatory mechanisms underlying various retinal diseases and biological processes. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has advanced the assessment of cellular heterogeneity by detecting transcriptional similarities and differences at single cell resolution.

We have collected the most comprehensive of 2 million single cells for adult human retina. The cell atlas contains 10 major cell types and over 100 subtypes. The resulting cell labeling forms a single-cell reference of the human retina. The reference has been shared at cellxgene. This single cell atlas yields a valuable data resource of the human retina for the field.
