What We Do

We reason through RNA-seq from signal to decision.

AviCella does not treat RNA-seq as a fixed script. It reads every quality metric, count matrix, PCA, DEG table, and pathway result as evidence to interpret, challenge, and use for the next decision.

01 — The Problem

RNA-seq breaks quietly when nobody is watching the evidence.

The pipeline can finish and still be wrong. Adapter remnants, poly-G artifacts, weak mapping, wrong strandedness, annotation mismatches, or an unmodeled lane effect can travel all the way into a beautiful volcano plot.

The expert work is deciding whether each intermediate result is technically reliable, biologically plausible, and consistent with the experiment before the next branch is allowed to run.

  • Metadata lies
  • Batch can mimic biology
  • DEGs need context

02 — Why We're Solving It

Who we are: a multi-AI agent platform for RNA-seq Intelligence.

We are not a pipeline wrapper. AviCella is built for Interpretation: it examines each RNA-seq output, explains what it means, decides whether it is safe to trust, and chooses what should be checked next.

Multi-AI agent platform

Interpretation built into the system.

AviCella is a multi-AI agent platform for RNA-seq Intelligence. It reads each run like an expert pair: one side checks metrics, models, covariates, and tool assumptions; the other asks whether the result makes biological sense.

Decision gates

Every node has an Intelligence gate.

FASTQ quality, STAR mapping, assignment rates, PCA structure, dispersion, p-value histograms, and pathway enrichments are treated as Interpretation gates, not decoration.

Evidence loop

Results become hypotheses.

A DEG table is not the answer. AviCella applies RNA-seq Intelligence by cross-checking leading genes, pathways, sample structure, and literature support before recommending the next analysis or validation step.

03 — What We Do

The RNA-seq analysis tree, with Intelligence at every node.

At each step the multi-AI agent platform asks what came in, what was run, which tool should be preferred, what came out, what must be monitored, what needs Interpretation biologically, and which downstream branches are now justified.

  1. 01

    Start with design and intake.

    Check the biological question, sample sheet, layout, lanes, metadata, and whether the experiment can support the contrast being asked.

  2. 02

    Treat QC as evidence.

    FastQC, fastp, MultiQC, read balance, GC, adapter content, duplication, and poly-G artifacts decide how trimming and filtering should proceed.

  3. 03

    Interrogate alignment and counts.

    STAR logs, splice junctions, IGV checks, strandedness, assignment rate, and Salmon/featureCounts agreement are checked before trusting a matrix.

  4. 04

    Decide from the biology.

    PCA, batch covariates, DESeq2 diagnostics, p-value histograms, pathways, TF activity, and literature support shape the next branch and final report.

How We Think

Four beliefs behind every RNA-seq run.

BELIEF 01

Pipelines are fixed. RNA biology is not.

A fixed order of commands cannot know when a GC shift, mapping drop, or PCA split has changed the meaning of the run.

BELIEF 02

Every output is a hypothesis.

A count matrix, DEG table, and enrichment plot each need technical and biological justification before becoming a conclusion.

BELIEF 03

Critique comes before confidence.

The system actively looks for artifacts, confounding, outlier-driven genes, weak replicate structure, and literature contradictions.

BELIEF 04

The report should tell you what to do next.

The final deliverable carries confidence, limitations, validation ideas, and a clear recommendation for the next analysis or wet-lab check.
