Published today – result of great collaboration between the Gottesman (NCI) and Hourigan (NHLBI) labs at NIH using fantastic dataset generated from BeatAML 1.0 effort.
Congrats to Gege, Blair and our new friends in the Gottesman lab.

Human bone marrow by scRNA-seq, CyTOF and Flow
Our first pre-print! Congratulations to Kary Oetjen and rest of lab on what we hope will be a useful reference dataset – deep assessment of human bone marrow from twenty healthy human donors aged 24-84 by paired single-cell RNA-sequencing and multi-parameter 13-color flow cytometry (with mass cytometry as orthogonal validation of T and NK immunophenotype). Due-diligence benchmarking prior to our use of this technology on clinical trial samples shows great opportunity for proteogenomics/CITE-Seq/REAP-seq/Ab-Seq to help better resolve T and NK cell populations. Uploading dataset now – enjoy!

Single NGS assay to track APL, CBF AML and NPM1mutated AML to very high sensitivity (1 in 100,000 in some cases). Qiagen kit of this assay coming soon.
