Cell types / brain regions to compare

Add as many searches as needed. Words within each search narrow that group (e.g. a cell-type label and marker gene). Leave the search blank to show all cell populations. Empty additional searches are ignored. Searches match 7 populations and their original annotations; no inferred anatomical assignments are added. Matching populations appear once, in the first matching group.

Means use only the genes and cell populations currently displayed. Untick to restore the original order.

Use the horizontal slider or Left/Right buttons to navigate wide heatmaps without browser back gestures. Hover or tap a heatmap tile for expression and original cell-cluster annotations. Ranking uses arithmetic means of the displayed expression measurements, not statistical enrichment. When comparing multiple searches, the groups are separated by lines. Fixed colour scaling is recommended for direct comparisons.
