Overview

What this area is.

Bulk assays average over millions of cells and hide the biology that matters. Single-cell omics measures expression and chromatin per cell, revealing rare populations, transitional states and the structure of tissues.

We run the full pipeline — QC, normalisation, batch correction, clustering, UMAP embedding, annotation and trajectory inference — to turn cell-by-gene matrices into interpretable cell atlases.

Capabilities

What we do.

Core methods we apply in single-cell omics.

scRNA-seq

From count matrices to annotated cell types.

scATAC-seq

Single-cell open-chromatin and regulatory landscapes.

QC & integration

Doublet removal, normalisation and batch correction.

Clustering & embedding

Graph clustering with UMAP / t-SNE visualisation.

Cell-type annotation

Marker- and reference-based labelling.

Trajectory inference

Pseudotime and lineage reconstruction.

Developmental trajectories

Reconstructing how cell states unfold over time.

Insights

Questions we answer.

A few of the things people ask about single-cell omics — and our short answers. Ask CGB-AI for more.

Why single-cell over bulk?

It exposes rare cell types, mixtures and transitions that bulk averaging erases — essential for heterogeneity and microenvironment studies.

What does UMAP show?

A 2-D map where nearby points are similar cells; clusters suggest cell types or states, validated with markers.
