In which Dana speaks with Vaibhav and Jason about the principles of single cell analysis and informatics challenges associated with it. Among other things, they discuss manifolds and data topology, Bayesian approaches and considerations in prior distribution selection in biology, matrix factorization and imputing missing cell states with graphical walks through phenotypic space, and the utility of diffusion components when  Principal Component Analysis is insufficient. Dana concludes with some advice for young people interested in Systems and Computational Biology.

Bio Bytes 16: The Power of Single Cell Data Analysis with Dana Pe'er

Description:Dana Pe’er is a world class computational biologist and the Chair of the Computational and Systems Biology Program at Sloan Kettering Institute. Her lab uses computational approaches to better understand how tumors and other genetic diseases interact as ecosystems. In the emerging era of big data, she is a pioneer in our movement toward the development of the best strategies to effectively consolidate and interpret large datasets in order to improve our healthcare.
