Releases, features, fixes, and updates from the ASAP team.
We just finished to compile a list of project from different sources (CELLxGENE, BGee, GEO, and HCA) that you can search and directly import into ASAP. Please have a try and do not hesitate send us your feedback!)

Some analyses (for example large Seurat SCTransform normalizations) were being cancelled by SLURM after exactly 2 hours when the submitted walltime was too short. This is fixed: all jobs are now submitted with a 24-hour SLURM time limit (or longer if the duration prediction plus a 5-minute buffer exceeds 24 hours). If a job failed earlier with a SLURM time-limit cancellation, you can safely relaunch it.

You can now follow platform announcements, feature launches, and service alerts right from the welcome page.
A new heatmap step is now available. It allows users to: - Cluster a selected set of genes and cells (or samples), or group them according to metadata categories, and visualize the results as a dynamic heatmap. - Add gene and cell/sample metadata tracks to the heatmap. - Save the state of a heatmap as a checkpoint with a permanent URL for external reference. - Collaboratively comment on a heatmap checkpoint. - Export the heatmap as an SVG image for publication.

We may briefly pause job submissions during upcoming infrastructure updates. Running analyses are not affected.
