Frontiers of Science Award at ICBS 2024 for Fabian Theis and Colleagues
Recognizing Groundbreaking Work in Single‑cell Data Analysis
A team of computational biologists from Helmholtz Munich has been honored with the prestigious Frontiers of Science Award at the International Congress of Basic Science (ICBS) in Beijing.
MCML PI Fabian Theis, together with Alexander Wolf, and Philipp Angerer received this recognition for their influential 2018 paper, “Scanpy: Large‑Scale Single‑Cell Gene Expression Data Analysis.”
The ICBS is a globally renowned event that gathers leading scientists, researchers, and scholars from across disciplines to showcase their latest innovations. The Frontiers of Science Award celebrates researchers whose work has significantly advanced their field — a distinction well earned by this outstanding team.
Congratulations from us!
