scDiffCom

Lifecycle: stable CRAN status Codecov test coverage R-CMD-check

scDiffCom stands for “single-cell Differential Communication” and infers changes in intercellular communication between two biological conditions from scRNA-seq data (as Seurat objects). The package relies on an internal collection of ligand-receptor interactions (available for human, mouse and rat) retrieved from seven curated databases.
