Looking forward to gathering leaders of the HCA Biological Networks, Regional Networks, and Working Groups in London on 17-18 November for strategy sessions on HCA 2.0: The Rosetta Stone for Predictive Biology. Grateful to @Wellcometrust for hosting!
The HCA 2.0 “Rosetta Stone” will synergize with parallel efforts such as the new Virtual Biology Initiative buff.ly/6BxfnhM. It’s encouraging to see so many partners coming together with a shared vision!

On the tenth Anniversary of the launch meeting, we celebrate the first decade of the #HumanCellAtlas and what’s to come, with reflections from HCA Co-Founders Sarah Teichmann and Aviv Regev, and new Co-Chairs Muzlifah Haniffa and Alexandra-Chloé Villani. buff.ly/LMdeK3J
The HCA’s communities, organized into Biological Networks and Regional Networks, guided by Working Groups, are assembling the #HumanCellAtlas.
The first draft #HumanCellAtlas of healthy tissues is now within sight, with publication planned in 2027. Meanwhile, ambitious plans for the next phase - HCA 2.0 - are already underway. This will map billions of cells, in 2D and 3D and include disease.
Fabulous to see this editorial from @NatureBiotech, highlighting HCA achievements and technologies over the past 10 years, and the ambitious plans for the future. Watch this space!
