Hi @santhi. Sorry for the delay in responding to this post. We recognize that there are some challenges for reading these large files. I’d suggest starting with previous forum topics which discuss reading such files [in R](https://community.brain-map.org/t/gene-expression-matrix-cvs-is-too-large-to-load-it/566) and [in python](https://community.brain-map.org/t/reading-rna-seq-data-into-python/658). It is also worth noting that we provide t-SNE coordinates as part of the [relevant “Download” links](https://portal.brain-map.org/atlases-and-data/rnaseq). For most data sets (especially 10X) we do not separate exonic from intronic reads.
