Understanding the cellular diversity and complexity of multicellular organisms as well as their organ systems remains a main goal in life science. The advent of increasingly powerful single-cell transcriptomics techniques allows to gain insigth into biological processes or disease mechanisms with unprecedented resolution: a single cell. The current workshop aims to provide an overview of recent advances in single-cell biology, with a strong focus on how these techniques revolutionize our understanding of impacting questions in life science.
