In a joint initiative, the Wellcome Sanger Institute, the Human Cell Atlas, and the CZI distribute datasets related to COVID-19 via anndata's h5ad files: covid19cellatlas.org.

Scanpy has been selected an essential open source software for science by CZI among 32 projects, along with giants such as Scipy, Numpy, Pandas, Matplotlib, scikit-learn, scikit-image/plotly, pip, jupyterhub/binder, Bioconda, Seurat, Bioconductor, and others.
