Details

In the last few years, single-cell technologies have revolutionized how we study biological processes, allowing unprecedented resolution and scale. SSCN is a community for all researchers in Singapore working in single-cell research, wetlab scientists and bioinformaticians with diverse interests from developmental biology to cancer research.

SSCN started regular meetings last year to provide a forum for researchers to discuss new publications, technologies, ideas, troubleshooting and other topics. All members will have opportunities to present their own data and experiences, as well as to hear from leading experts in the field on their latest research. Occasionally we will also invite industry to partners present their latest developments in the single-cell space.

Join us for the second event in 2021 to hear from Dr Owen Rackham and Dr Cátia Moutinho, and give your inputs during our open sessionto discuss how future single-cell community meetings can be run.

This meeting is organized by Singapore Single-Cell Network (SSCN), A*STAR Singapore and supported by Illumina, 10x Genomics and Miltenyi Biotec.

Uncovering hidden cell states using single-cell transcriptomics
The widespread use of single-cell approaches has enabled a new level of resolution to study our biological systems of interest. From large single-cell atlases to smaller targeted studies, we are unearthing numerous new cellular states that had previously gone unnoticed. In this talk, I will describe how we used single-cell approaches to understand the process of somatic cell reprogramming and how this led us to discover a new cell state, the induced trophoblast stem cell (or iTSC).

Single-Cell Experiments: The checklist you need before starting your project.
Single-Cell Experiments: The checklist you need before starting your project.
Nowadays, and due to the boom of commercial kits, it is quite easy to have access to single-cell technology. However, before planning any experiments, there are key points that need to be thought of before even considering buying any kit. In my talk, I will be taking you step-by-step through all these crucial points that are vital for the success of your project.
