Individual cells are basic units of life. Despite extensive efforts to characterize the cellular
heterogeneity of different organisms, cross-species comparisons of landscape dynamics …

Stony corals are colonial cnidarians that sustain the most biodiverse marine ecosystems on
Earth: coral reefs. Despite their ecological importance, little is known about the cell types …

Comparing single-cell transcriptomic atlases from diverse organisms can elucidate the
origins of cellular diversity and assist the annotation of new cell atlases. Yet, comparison …

Volume electron microscopy (vEM) is a group of techniques that reveal the 3D ultrastructure
