scverse / scanpy
Single-cell analysis in Python. Scales to >100M cells.
Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does
What it does
Scanpy is a scalable toolkit for analyzing single-cell gene expression data built jointly with [anndata][]. It includes preprocessing, visualization, clustering, trajectory inference and differential expression testing. The Python-based implementation efficiently deals with datasets of more than one million cells. For datasets too large to fit into memory, [many scanpy functions][] are now compatible with [dask][] (warning: experimental).
