How to set median data in transcriptomics explorer in human datasets? Currently, only trimmed mean data are visible in the heatmap. ---

Hi @Christos. Sorry for the delayed response! Currently, only trimmed mean data are available for visualization at the [Transcriptomics Explorer](https://celltypes.brain-map.org/rnaseq/human_m1_10x) for human, while both trimmed means and medians are available [for download](https://portal.brain-map.org/atlases-and-data/rnaseq). Including multiple strategies for summarization is on the docket for a future version of the tool. Alternatively, if you are interested in human MTG in particular, you have some additional options with our older [RNA-seq Data Navigator](https://celltypes.brain-map.org/rnaseq/human/mtg). ---

Hi Jeremy, thanks for the response. When you write “future version of the tool”, is that weeks, months, years? Best regards, Christos ---

Hi Christos, Tentatively, I could see this being addressed in October or November of this year. If/when we have it as a commitment on our roadmap, I’ll reach back out via this thread. Tyler ---

Hi Jeremy @jeremyinseattle, for some reason, I’m no longer able to access human mtg old navigator [https://celltypes.brain-map.org/rnaseq/human/mtg](https://celltypes.brain-map.org/rnaseq/human/mtg). Would you know if it has migrated somewhere? Thank you very much. ---

Hi @ainej. This site occasionally goes down for short amounts of time for Shiny updates. Try again–it works for me right now. ---

Thank you, Jeremy. Indeed, the old navigator is alive again. Hurray! ---

Hello Tyler, is the “future version tool” for toggling between trimmed means and medians in mouse and human data for visualization on your roadmap? Best regards, Christos ---

Hi Christos, It’s not committed on our roadmap at the moment. We’ve been focused in some other areas the last few months. I do think we will turn our attention toward enhancing the Transcriptomics Explorer in Q1/Q2 next year, but the exact timing is TBD. Tyler
