Abstract

Neuron RNA-seq Visualization tool in 3D), a Blender plug-in that allows visualizing the expression patterns of an unlimited number of genes within the worm's 3D nervous system. The tool enables users to explore the spatial distribution of gene co-expression with customizable color mapping, overlay single-cell RNA sequencing data onto the anatomical structure, and interactively examine transcriptomic datasets in the context of detailed neural anatomy.
