Breast Cancer Data
In scMerge: scMerge: Merging multiple batches of scRNA-seq data

Introduction

This is a human breast cancer single-cell data comprising of 4 different batches from a single experiment.

Integration challenge

Prior to integration, there is a strong separation effect by batches.
With 24,520 cells, this data poses dimensionality challenge to data integration.
