-### inspiration and collaboration
-
-We've been heavily inspired by several other related single-cell visualization projects:
-* [UCSC Cell Browswer](http://cells.ucsc.edu/)
-* [Cytoscape](http://www.cytoscape.org/)
-* [Xena](https://xena.ucsc.edu/)
-* [ASAP](https://asap.epfl.ch/)
-* [Gene Pattern](http://genepattern-notebook.org/)
-
-We were inspired by Mike Bostock and the [crossfilter](https://github.com/crossfilter) team for the design of our filtering implementation.
-
-We have been working closely with the [`scanpy`](https://github.com/theislab/scanpy) team to integrate with their awesome analysis tools. Special thanks to Alex Wolf, Fabian Theis, and the rest of the team for their help during development and for providing an example dataset.
-
-We are eager to explore integrations with other computational backends such as [`Seurat`](https://github.com/satijalab/seurat) or [`Bioconductor`](https://github.com/Bioconductor)
