Pumping the brakes on RNA velocity by understanding and interpreting RNA velocity estimates
Background RNA velocity analysis of single cells offers the potential to predict temporal dynamics from gene expression. In many systems, RNA velocity has been observed to produce a vector field that qualitatively reflects known features of the system ...
