Researchers develop a universal AI algorithm for deep clean-up of single cell genomic data

A single cell’s genome or transcriptome can reveal considerably more data about its place in biological systems than sequencing a full batch of cells, just as interviewing a single person about their health will provide specialized, personalized information hard to obtain from a big poll.
