Resumen de Sequencing diversity one cell at a time

Michael C. Oldham, Anatol C. Kreitzer

• Single-cell RNA sequencing provides a new approach to an old problem: how to study cellular diversity in complex biological systems. Three studies—Saunders et al., Zeisel et al., and Davie et al.—deploy this technique on an unprecedented scale to reveal transcriptional patterns that distinguish cells in the nervous systems of mice and flies.
