Abstract: Biological phenomena are notorious for crossing several temporal and spatial scales. While often it may be sufficient to focus on a single scale, it is not rare that we have to consider several scales simultaneously. Computational modeling and simulation of biological systems thus frequently requires to include diverse temporal and spatial scales. A popular …

Abstract: In typical single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) data analysis, a clustering algorithm is applied to find discrete cell clusters as putative cell types, and then a statistical test is employed to identify the differentially expressed (DE) genes between the cell clusters. However, this common procedure suffers the ``double dipping'' issue: the same data are used twice …
