SCTA: An Agentic Framework for Stable and Interpretable Target Gene Discovery from Single-Cell RNA Sequencing
Identifying therapeutic target genes from single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data remains a fundamental challenge in translational biology. Unlike bulk assays, scRNA-seq captures heterogeneous cellular states and rare subpopulations, but this same heterogeneity makes target discovery highly sensitive to analytical choices throughout the pipeline, including preprocessing, cell population selection, differential expression analysis, and downstream biological interpretation. As a result, existing workflows and general-purpose analysis agents often produce unstable or difficult-to-interpret target hypotheses, limiting their reliability for disease-focused discovery. We present SCTA (Singl...
