  "Description": "NicheNet is a computational framework for modeling\nintercellular communication by linking extracellular ligands to\nintracellular gene regulatory changes. It integrates prior\nknowledge of ligand-receptor interactions, signaling pathways,\nand transcription factor regulation to predict which ligands\nfrom sender cells affect gene expression in receiver cells.\nThis enables mechanistic hypothesis generation about cell-cell\ncommunication events observed in transcriptomic data.",
