  New BioRxiv pre-print

  We've contributed to a new BioRχiv pre-print by Marouen Ben Guebila from the Quackenbush group. Marouen developed the Gene RegulAtory Network Database (GRAND), a large resource of genome-wide networks across multiple human tissues, disease states, and cell lines. The database also includes tools to query, analyze, and visualize the networks. More information on the pre-print can be found here.

  New publication

  Genís recently published a review paper in Frontiers in Genetics. In the review, we describe community detection in large-scale bipartite biological networks. Network analysis is a powerful methodology to understand the complex interplay of biological interactions. With the emergence of next generation sequencing technologies and other high-throughput experimental approaches, large amounts genome-wide data are now available for analysis. While standard biological approaches have helped our understanding of...

  New BioRxiv pre-print

  We contributed to a new BioRχiv pre-print by Daniel and his PhD advisor James Cai. Daniel developed R package rPanglaoDb that can be used to download and merge labeled single-cell RNA-seq data from the PanglaoDB database. In his manuscript, Daniel showed how this tool can be used to characterize cells with rare molecular phenotypes. More information on the pre-print can be found here.
