Single-cell RNA-seq with spike-in cells enables accurate quantification of cell-specific drug effects in pancreatic islets

Abstract Background Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) is emerging as a powerful tool to dissect cell-specific effects of drug treatment in complex tissues. This application requires high levels of precision, robustness, and quantitative accuracy—beyond those achievable with existing methods for mainly...
