Are the data stored safely?

Absolutely! In fact, no genetic data is stored on PlaqView. We tailor-process each dataset into a count matrix, which is then stored behind firewalls at the University of Virginia servers. Additionally, most of the datasets' raw files are already deposited behind secured SRA storage at the NIH.

How can I submit my data?

We will accept data in almost any format, but an R Seurat object is preferred. Get in touch with us and we can tailor to your specific dataset!
