  1. Is the article looks straightforward to you? If not, why?
  2. In general sense, do you prefer interactive web-based software or command-driven ones, why?

  • Helena Pound I will be presenting on an app that performs DeSeq2 gene expression analysis and shows some cool graphics using the SARtools package. The paper below describes the DeSeq2 analysis and customization. If you want to play with the app before class, it can be found in the cyverse.org discovery environment. The app is called "DESeq2 (multifactorial pairwise comparisons)." https://genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13059-014-0550-8
