CellSeekr generates bar graph based on chosen parameters
4. Export
Click “Export HD figure” for high-resolution image
TARGETED ANALYSIS
Correlate cell to gene in tumor
How do I correlate the expression of a gene to an immune cell in a patient population?
Use Targeted Analysis: Correlation
More details
1. Navigate
2. Select
Study, cells and/or genes to correlate. See instructions here.
3. Plot
CellSeekr generates a Pearson correlation graph displaying the correlation between selected cells and/or genes
4. Export

DISCOVERY ANALYSIS
Discover which cells express a gene
How do I find out which cells express a custom gene in a specific patient population?
Use Discovery Analysis: Signature to Cell Tethering
More details
1. Navigate
2. Select
Study, cell type and gene(s). See instructions here.
3. Plot
CellSeekr generates a Proportional Expression per Cell Type and Ranking leaderboard, a Top Phenotypes graph as well as Significance leaderboard and a Gene expression per group graph.
4. Export
Click “Export HD figure” for high-resolution image(s).
DISCOVERY ANALYSIS
Compare cell states in a tumor
How do I compare immune cell states in a tumor and patient groups?
Use Discovery Analysis: Geo Cluster Explorer
More details
1. Navigate
2. Select
Study and cell type. See instructions here.
3. Plot
CellSeekr generates a Geometric Cluster Map and Patient-level GEO cluster composition graphs, which can be further customized to display specific immune cell subtypes directly from the page.
4. Export
Click “Export HD figure” for high-resolution image(s).
DISCOVERY ANALYSIS
Spatially correlate genes
How do I determine whether a custom gene+immune cell is closer to one immune+gene neighbor versus another?
Use Discovery Analysis: Proximity Mapper
More details
1. Navigate
2. Select
Study, query and two reference genes and cells. See instructions here.
3. Plot
CellSeekr will generate a Proximity Spectrum per group, and two UMAPs, one for each comparison group selected.
4. Export
Click “Export HD figure” for high-resolution image(s).
