TLDR
Diverse approaches for integrative single-cell analysis are discussed, including experimental methods for profiling multiple omics types from the same cells, analytical approaches for extracting additional layers of information directly from scRNA-seq data and computational integration of omics data collected across different cell samples.
Abstract
The recent maturation of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technologies has coincided with transformative new methods to profile genetic, epigenetic, spatial, proteomic and lineage information in individual cells. This provides unique opportunities, alongside computational challenges, for integrative methods that can jointly learn across multiple types of data. Integrated analysis can discover relationships across cellular modalities, learn a holistic representation of the cell state, and enable the pooling of data sets produced across individuals and technologies. In this Review, we discuss the recent advances in the collection and integration of different data types at single-cell resolution with a focus on the integration of gene expression data with other types of single-cell measurement.

Comprehensive integration of single cell data

TL;DR: This work presents a strategy for comprehensive integration of single cell data, including the assembly of harmonized references, and the transfer of information across datasets, and demonstrates how anchoring can harmonize in-situ gene expression and scRNA-seq datasets.

Inference and analysis of cell-cell communication using CellChat

TL;DR: A database of interactions among ligands, receptors and their cofactors that accurately represents known heteromeric molecular complexes is constructed and a tool that is able to quantitively infer and analyze intercellular communication networks from single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data is developed.
