Hi, thanks for the incredible work!
Wondering if you know any method to map the gene token id like "ENSG00000000005" back to its original name in natural language?
Thank you!
Thank you for your question. We use Ensembl IDs because they are unique and standardized, as opposed to gene names that can be from different annotation schemes. Ensembl IDs can be converted to other annotation schemes with Ensembl Biomart:
