The collection highlights many large scale datasets, AI algorithms and biomedical discoveries from the HCA community, marking a great leap in our understanding of the human body.

The papers in the collection provide a foundation towards the first draft Human Cell Atlas which is being created by 18 HCA Biological Networks. Draft Lung, Brain and Retina HCA Atlases have already been created, and are on the HCA Data Portal, with more to come.

We could not have reached this point without the contributions of thousands of experts and incredible support from funders.
