Science Papers Include Thymus Cellular Map, Ancient Archaic Hominin Admixture

Feb 21, 2020

A comprehensive cellular map of the human thymus across a lifespan is presented in Science this week, marking the latest offering from the Human Cell Atlas initiative. A team led by Wellcome Sanger Institute scientists use single-cell RNA sequencing to create a cell census of the human thymus across the lifespan and to reconstruct T cell differentiation trajectories and T cell receptor recombination kinetics.
