Li Lab

The Li Lab aims at developing novel computational tools to empower single-cell and single-nucleus multi-omics data analysis. Currently, we have three important research directions:

  • Cloud-based analysis of large-scale single-cell and single-nucleus RNA-seq datasets;
  • Cloud-based large-scale single-cell ATAC-seq data analysis;
  • Cloud-based spatial transcriptomics data analysis.

In addition, collaborating with biologists and clinicians, we also work on biological questions related to:

  • Human Immune Cell Atlas;
  • Human Tumor Cell Atlas;
  • COVID-19 research.
