alterlab-neuropixels
FeaturedAnalyze Neuropixels 1.0/2.0 extracellular electrophysiology with SpikeInterface — load SpikeGLX/Open Ephys recordings, preprocess and motion-correct, run Kilosort4 spike sorting, compute quality metrics, apply Allen/IBL curation, and do AI-assisted visual inspection. Use when working with neural recordings, spike sorting, or extracellular electrophysiology, or when the user mentions Neuropixels, SpikeGLX, Open Ephys, Kilosort, quality metrics, or unit curation.

alterlab-pathml
Run full computational-pathology workflows with PathML — whole-slide-image (WSI) analysis across 160+ slide formats, multiplexed immunofluorescence (CODEX, Vectra, MERFISH), nucleus segmentation/classification (HoVer-Net, HACTNet), tissue- and cell-graph construction, HDF5 dataset management, and deep-learning model training on pathology data. Use when the user builds end-to-end deep-learning pathology pipelines, analyzes multiplexed or spatial-proteomics slides, or segments nuclei. For lightweight H&E slide preprocessing, tissue masking, or plain Random/Grid/Score tile extraction prefer alterlab-histolab instead. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
alterlab-scikit-bio
Analyze biological data with scikit-bio — sequence analysis and alignments, phylogenetic trees, alpha/beta diversity metrics (including UniFrac), ordination (PCoA), PERMANOVA statistics, and FASTA/Newick I/O. Use for microbiome and community-ecology analysis — computing diversity, distance matrices, and ordination from feature tables. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
alterlab-scanpy
Run the standard single-cell RNA-seq analysis pipeline with Scanpy on AnnData — QC filtering, normalization, dimensionality reduction (PCA, UMAP, t-SNE), Leiden/Louvain clustering, marker/differential expression, PAGA trajectories, and plotting. Use when analyzing scRNA-seq data through clustering, cell-type annotation, DE, or pseudotime workflows; for building or reading the .h5ad data structure itself (layers, obs/var, concatenation, backed mode) prefer alterlab-anndata instead, and for RNA velocity from spliced/unspliced counts prefer alterlab-scvelo instead.
