An atlas of life: mapping the human body cell by cell
Scientists, backed by the Wellcome Trust, are working to map the human body cell by cell, building an atlas of every cell type and its function. The effort, part of a global push to catalogue human biology at single-cell resolution, is being highlighted as a step toward better understanding disease and development.
Why now: New progress in large-scale single-cell mapping of human biology has drawn attention to this landmark scientific effort.
