Here we present a compendium of single-cell transcriptomic data from the model organism Mus musculus that comprises more than 100,000 cells from 20 organs and tissues. These data represent a new resource for cell biology, reveal gene expression in poorly characterized cell populations and enable the direct and controlled comparison of gene expression in cell types that are shared between tissues, such as T lymphocytes and endothelial cells from different anatomical locations. Two distinct technical approaches were used for most organs: one approach, microfluidic droplet-based 3′-end counting, enabled the survey of thousands of cells at relatively low coverage, whereas the other, full-length transcript analysis based on fluorescence-activated cell sorting, enabled the characterization of cell types with high sensitivity and coverage. The cumulative data provide the foundation for an atlas of transcriptomic cell biology.

        Aaron is enthusiastic and runs at his work with purpose. 

When you asked him if he could do a job, he was honest. He would layout the resources and guidance he needed to succeed. When provided with these, he leveraged his experience in pipefitting, his education, his drive, and his intelligence to ensure success. 

While working at Mud Mountain Dam he helped me plan the piping work. He also started to help me with other work outside his comfort zone. His role included procurement, plan and spec review, review of sub and material suppliers submittals, management of sub and material suppliers, work planning submittal when needed, submittal to our client, work planning, ensuring safety, quality, and production in the field, and so much more. He never hesitated to work long hours or to learn what it took to tackle the next challenge when we needed him. 

Aaron was hundreds of miles away from his best fans and the reason he worked hard - the best reason any of us work hard - his wife and two young children. He was flown home on our dime, but was only able to visit his family for two days at a time twice a month. As a father, that commitment would tear me apart. Fortunately for his wife and kids, Aaron left my supervision to be able to see his family every day. I will truly miss the role he provided to my team. 

Aaron - thank you for your commitment to me, my team, and the Kiewit family. As a reminder of the relationship we forged and fought for:

1. Never sacrifice safety of you or anyone who works for you for anything;
2. Never sacrifice the quality of your work or of those you supervise; and
3. Always go out on a limb for anyone who is passionate about your success. 

I have the highest hopes for you and yours. Please stay in touch and let me know all the successes you and your family achieve.
