scPassport

This is the released version of scPassport; for the devel version, see scPassport.

Passport System for Single-Cell Objects


Bioconductor version: Release (3.23)

Stamps Seurat, SingleCellExperiment, and SummarizedExperiment objects with a persistent metadata passport. For Seurat objects the passport is stored in the misc slot; for SingleCellExperiment and SummarizedExperiment objects it is stored in the metadata slot. Tracks animal info, experiment details, lineage (parent/child relationships), RDS registry numbers, processing logs, and custom fields. Includes an interactive Shiny gadget to fill and update the passport, and a read mode to print the full passport to console. The passport persists inside the RDS file with no external files needed.
