About Me

Image

I am Ábel Vértesy, a postdoc in the Knoblich Lab at IMBA - Institute for Molecular Biotechnology of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna. I did my PhD in Alexander van Oudenaarden’s lab at the Hubrecht Institute, in Utrecht, The Netherlands.

My current research centers on sequencing-based single-cell connectomics in human brain organoids, integrating transcriptomics with network-level analysis. During my PhD, I was focusing on data analysis in different single-cell genomics and spatial transcriptomics projects, many focusing on haplotype-specific gene-expression (sex chromosomes, imprinting).

This website is summarizing some of my activities.

Science

My papers are listed on ORCID, on Google Scholar and on Pubmed. Preprints of my manuscripts are accessible on biorxiv, or accesible on request.

Teaching

I designed and held two summer courses in the July-Aug/2018 in Accra, at the University of Ghana.

  1. Single-cell genomics (1 cours, coming in Aug!)
  2. Exploratory-data-analysis-in-R (2 courses)

Software

Accompanying my work generated and maintain a set of open source libraries.

These R-packages help at different levels of data analysis, efficient programming in R

The most important packages are listed below, the full list can be found on GitHub

  1. Seurat.utils, various utility functions for single-cell analysis with Seurat.
  2. MarkdownReports, an R function library to create scientific figures and reports easily.
  3. ggExpress One of the fastest way to create, annotate, save plots with corresponding data files (by single command) in R.
  4. RoxygenReady to prepare your R function library for compilation by Roxygen into a properly documented R package.
  5. CodeAndRoll, a utility function library for R.
