BD Cellismo™ Data Visualization Tool

BD Cellismo™ Data Visualization Tool

More actionable insights. No coding required.

Overview

The BD Cellismo™ Data Visualization Tool is a software tool for secondary analysis and visualization of single-cell multiomics data. It helps researchers turn millions of data points into actionable insights without writing a single line of code.

 

With the BD Cellismo™ Data Visualization Tool, you can easily visualize data from your samples across various parameters; subset cells into populations based on gene expression; create histograms, heatmaps, dot plots, volcano plots, violin plots, tSNE and UMAP plots; and customize and export plots as .PNG or .SVG files for collaboration and publication.

 

Watch the video to see how you can analyze your data using both primary analysis, with the BD Rhapsody™ Sequence Analysis Pipeline, and secondary analysis.

      Generate the Same Data Visualization as Seurat Using the BD Cellismo™ Data Visualization Tool—Without Writing Any Code or Programming

       

      With the BD Cellismo™ Data Visualization Tool (right) you’re able to generate the same data visualization as with Seurat (left), without having to write any code. The BD Cellismo™ Data Visualization Tool’s interface also lets you easily customize your figures (e.g., dot size, color, opacity) in a point and click fashion.

          Input Requirements:

           

          • (Preferred) .Cellismo output file from the BD Rhapsody™ Sequence Analysis Pipeline. This file contains the expression data for all modalities (RNA and AbSeq) in addition to any cell annotations that are created by the pipeline (e.g., Sample Multiplexing Tag, Immune Cell Type).

          • Alternative input formats:
            1. Market exchange (MEX)
            2. H5MU/H5AD

          Release Notes

           

          Latest Version: v1.0   |   Release Date: March 2025

           

          Initial release includes the following features:

          • Load single-cell multiomic data from multiple formats, including BD Rhapsody™ Sequence Analysis Pipeline .Cellismo files with bundled metadata, matrix market MEX, Scanpy/Muon or H5MU/H5AD
          • Manage multiple single-cell projects and jump between them with a few clicks
          • Quality control with a visual on which cells are being removed
          • Generate 7 different types of graphs: Dimensionality reduction scatter, Biaxial, Bioproduct correlation, Heatmap, Dot plot, Histogram and Violin.
          • Extensive graph customization with style options
          • Save images to a project gallery sidebar and recall them with ease
          • Drag gallery images from the sidebar to external applications
          • Create new cell annotations, by circling cells of interest, by running Leiden or K-means clustering, or by combining existing annotations
          • Analyze differential expression between cell groups of interest. Filter genes of interest in a table and view on a volcano plot
          • Generate new dimensionality reduction coordinates
          • Supports whole transcriptome or targeted RNA, protein counts with AbSeq/CITE-seq and sample multiplexing

          "Cellismo made analysis and visualization of Rhapsody data simple and intuitive. Both people experienced with R and people who have never used R quickly performed tasks that typically take many lines of code. It simplified the preprocessing and graphing processes, facilitating deeper exploration of our data in far less time. The lasso tool and interactive DEG output made comparing populations of interest much easier as well. Cellismo is exactly the software we were looking for to rapidly analyze our single cell data with a minimal learning curve."
