  "summary": "Lineage tracing enables reconstruction of cellular histories in development, regeneration, and disease, but integrating lineage data into single-cell analysis workflows remains challenging. We introduce Pycea, a Python toolkit for lineage analysis and visualization, and TreeData, an extension of AnnData that stores lineage trees alongside cellular measurements. TreeData is compatible with Scanpy…",
