Because PerturbSpace uses standard single-cell sequencing, it’s compatible with any single-cell readout. In one day, the team processed 50 spleen sections from 3 mice, capturing each cell’s transcriptome, location, CRISPR guide, clonal relationship, and 119 surface proteins. https://t.co/vnhoVYnUsQ

CohortHijack: Robustness of Single Cell Annotation to Companion Cell Removal
This arXiv paper introduces CohortHijack, a robustness audit that removes non-target cells from single-cell query cohorts to test how annotation tools can be manipulated without altering the target cell's expression profile. It shows that structured removal and search strategies can change refined labels in popular pipelines while preserving the target, identifying query cohort composition as a vulnerability surface.
