Flexible experimental designs for valid single-cell RNA-sequencing experiments allowing batch effects correction

It is not clear which designs, other than completely randomized ones, are valid for scRNA-seq experiments so that batch effects can be adjusted. Here the authors show that under flexible reference panel and chain-type designs, biological variability can also be separated from batch effects, at least...

description It is not clear which designs, other than completely randomized ones, are valid for scRNA-seq experiments so that batch effects can be adjusted. Here the authors show that under flexible reference panel and chain-type designs, biological variability can also be separated from batch effects, at least by BUSseq.
