Welcome to InSituPy’s documentation!#
InSituPy is a Python package designed to facilitate the analysis of single-cell spatial transcriptomics data. With InSituPy, you can easily load, visualize, and analyze the data, enabling and simplifying the comprehensive exploration of spatial gene expression patterns within tissue sections and across multiple samples. Currently the analysis is focused on data from the Xenium In Situ methodology but a broader range of reading functions will be implemented in the future.
Note
This repository is under very active development and it cannot be guaranteed that releases contain changes that might impair backwards compatibility. If you observe any such thing, please feel free to contact us to solve the problem. Thanks!
Features#
Data Preprocessing: InSituPy provides functions for normalizing, filtering, and transforming raw in situ transcriptomics data.
Interactive Visualization: Create interactive plots using napari to easily explore spatial gene expression patterns.
Annotation: Annotate Xenium In Situ data in the napari viewer or import annotations from external tools like QuPath.
Multi-sample analysis: Perform analysis on an experiment-level, i.e. with multiple samples at once.
