RNA Velocity and Cellular Dynamics

Mathematical and computational methods for evaluating RNA velocity and analyzing cell-state transitions.

Overview

RNA velocity provides information about the direction and dynamics of cellular state transitions using single-cell transcriptomic data.

Our research develops mathematical and computational approaches to evaluate RNA velocity representations, assess transition consistency, and improve the interpretation of cellular dynamics.

Research Directions

  • Evaluation of RNA velocity embeddings and transition consistency.
  • Development of the Embedding Velocity Topology Score (EVTS).
  • Analysis of branching trajectories and cellular state transitions.
  • Applications to single-cell biomedical datasets.

Research Significance

This project aims to improve the reliability and biological interpretation of RNA velocity analysis, supporting the study of dynamic processes in complex biological systems.
