In vitro biology is the study of cells, tissues, and organs from various organisms including plants, animals, and humans. When performed in vitro, these studies are performed outside of the living organism, in a laboratory.
Regardless of method, single cell RNA-seq only captures a small fraction of the transcriptome of each cell. Often, this is due to inherent limitations of the methodology as reads ‘drop...
