Somatic mutations can drive disease, but hard to distinguish from technical error. Rhys Gillman introduces SCARCE: Single-Cell Analysis of Rare Clonal Events which blends scDNA seq with surface markers to find clonal variants in specific cell types www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.10.30.685685v1
