Is it just this? dmat_cond = pat.dmatrix("condition", adata.obs, return_type='dataframe') dmat_samp = pat.dmatrix("sample-1", adata.obs, return_type='dataframe') dmat_chip = pat.dmatrix("chip-1", adata.obs, return_type='dataframe') dmat = dmat_cond.join(dmat_samp).join(dmat_chip)

Yes @LuckyMD, this is how you would do it in patsy.
