#' Obtain the Bhaduri cortical organoid data
#'
#' Obtain the human cortical organoid single-cell RNA-seq dataset from Bhaduri et al. (2020).
#'
#' @param ensembl Logical scalar indicating whether the output row names should contain Ensembl identifiers.
#' @param location Logical scalar indicating whether genomic coordinates should be returned.
#' 
#' @details
#' Column data contains sample-level information.
#' In theory, there is also cell-level metadata for this dataset but it could not be unambiguously mapped to the column names.
#'
#' If \code{ensembl=TRUE}, the gene symbols are converted to Ensembl IDs in the row names of the output object.
#' Rows with missing Ensembl IDs are discarded, and only the first occurrence of duplicated IDs is retained.
#'
#' If \code{location=TRUE}, the coordinates of the Ensembl gene models are stored in the \code{\link{rowRanges}} of the output.
#' Note that this is only performed if \code{ensembl=TRUE}.
#'
#' All data are downloaded from ExperimentHub and cached for local re-use.
#' Specific resources can be retrieved by searching for \code{scRNAseq/bhaduri-organoid}.
#'
#' @return A \linkS4class{SingleCellExperiment} object with a single matrix of UMI counts.
