Hi I have processed data till gene counts were generated. Since my data are single cells without treatment, I cannot use DESeq2. Is there other ways to visualize the data and group the cells based on their gene expression? I tried Seurat, but got error. Is there a specific format that is required for using Seurat in galaxy? Appreciate if anyone could provide some advice. Kevin

Hi @liangy10

Usage is Galaxy is generally the same as the command-line version of tools for file _formats_. The Help section on tool forms try to clarify anything “Galaxy specific” eg what datatype to give the inputs.

These tutorials have example data (initial + computed) along with methods (hands-on + workflows). Navigate by analysis domain or search with keywords like tool names.
