Cross-References

See @fig-volcano for the volcano plot.

```{r}
#| label: fig-volcano
#| fig-cap: "Volcano plot showing DE genes"
ggplot(res, aes(log2FC, -log10(pvalue))) + geom_point()
```

Results are summarized in @tbl-summary.

```{r}
#| label: tbl-summary
#| tbl-cap: "Summary statistics"
knitr::kable(summary_df)
```

Code Cell Options

```{python}
#| echo: true
#| warning: false
#| fig-width: 10
#| fig-height: 6
#| cache: true

import scanpy as sc
sc.pl.umap(adata, color='leiden')
```

Inline Code

We found `{python} len(sig_genes)` significant genes.
We found `{r} nrow(sig)` significant genes.
