• Due to the development of next‐generation RNA sequencing technologies, there has been tremendous progress in research involving determining the role of genomics, transcriptomics, and epigenomics in complex biological systems. However, scientists have realized that information obtained using earlier technology, frequently called “bulk RNA‐seq” data, provides information averaged across all the cells present in a tissue. Relatively newly developed single‐cell (single‐cell RNA sequencing [scRNA‐seq]) technology allows us to provide transcriptomic information at a single‐cell resolution. Nevertheless, these high‐resolution data have their own complex natures and demand novel statistical data analysis methods to provide effective and highly accurate results on complex biological systems. In this review, we cover many such recently developed statistical methods for researchers wanting to pursue scRNA‐seq statistical and computational research as well as scientific research about these existing methods and free software tools available for their generated data. This review is certainly not exhaustive due to page limitations. We have tried to cover the popular methods starting from quality control to the downstream analysis of finding differentially expressed genes and concluding with a brief description of network analysis. This article is categorized under: Statistical and Graphical Methods of Data Analysis > Analysis of High Dimensional Data Statistical Models > Generalized Linear Models Software for Computational Statistics > Software/Statistical Software An UpSet plot of differentially expressed (DE) genes detected by six different methods for astrocytes. Dots below the vertical bars indicate intersections of detected DE genes among different methods. The colored horizontal bars represent the total number of DE genes for each method.
