WebAtlas provides a friendly interactive environment for sharing and discovering unified datasets of single-cell and spatial transcriptomics. To understand the complexity of tissues and organs, the world of biological research has found single cell &amp; spatial transcriptomics to be highly valuable. On the one hand, scRNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) reveals individual cells\u2019 gene expression profiles, while on the other hand, spatial transcriptomics highlights their presence inside a tissue. However, the integration of these two types of data is challenging due to differences in size and nature.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-understanding-webatlas\">Understanding WebAtlas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WebAtlas is a very powerful tool for conducting integrated single-cell and spatial transcriptomic data analysis.
