Awesome work! Apologies if I’m missing it in there—any sense whether segger could improve on 10x’s multimodal segmentation or is it fairly similar? I feel like it’s significantly better than their nuc expansion, but obviously challenging for some tissue compositions

Reducing batch effects in single cell chromatin accessibility measurements by pooled transposition with MULTI-ATAC Large-scale scATAC-seq experiments are challenging because of their costs, lengthy protocols, and confounding batch effects. Several sample multiplexing technologies aim to address these challenges, b...

Happy to share that the preprint to our new scATAC-seq multiplexing method, MULTI-ATAC, is officially online:

So much happening in the segmentation space for bioimage analysis. These two papers that were published online today really stood out to me as noteworthy (a thread).

Very cool work! Love seeing more SCCOHT research
