Scanpy – Single-Cell Analysis in Python #

Scanpy is a scalable toolkit for analyzing single-cell gene expression data built jointly with anndata . It includes preprocessing, visualization, clustering, trajectory inference and differential expression testing. The Python-based implementation efficiently deals with datasets of more than one million cells.
