Inference of differentiation time for single cell transcriptomes using cell population reference data

Single cell transcriptome data can be used to determine developmental lineage trajectories. Here the authors map single cell transcriptomes onto a differentiation trajectory defined by cell population transcriptomes and show that cell cycle regulators have a role in differentiation timing.
