Abstract
Single-cell and single-nucleus genomic approaches can provide unbiased and multimodal insights. Here, we discuss what constitutes a molecular cell atlas and how to leverage single-cell omics data to generate hypotheses and gain insights into cell transitions in development and disease of the nervous system. We share points of reflection on what to consider during study design and implementation as well as limitations and pitfalls. This Review provides insights for construction of molecular cell atlases and outlines key study design considerations. The authors emphasize the power of single-cell and single-nucleus genomics in revealing cellular transitions during nervous system development and disease.
期刊介绍:
Nature Neuroscience, a multidisciplinary journal, publishes papers of the utmost quality and significance across all realms of neuroscience. The editors welcome contributions spanning molecular, cellular, systems, and cognitive neuroscience, along with psychophysics, computational modeling, and nervous system disorders. While no area is off-limits, studies offering fundamental insights into nervous system function receive priority.
The journal offers high visibility to both readers and authors, fostering interdisciplinary communication and accessibility to a broad audience. It maintains high standards of copy editing and production, rigorous peer review, rapid publication, and operates independently from academic societies and other vested interests.
In addition to primary research, Nature Neuroscience features news and views, reviews, editorials, commentaries, perspectives, book reviews, and correspondence, aiming to serve as the voice of the global neuroscience community.
