Prediction of cell position using single-cell transcriptomic data: an iterative procedure [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

Single-cell sequencing reveals cellular heterogeneity but not cell localization. However, by combining single-cell transcriptomic data with a reference atlas of a small set of genes, it would be possible to predict the position of individual cells and reconstruct the spatial expression profile of th...
