“The transcriptome is the set of all RNA transcripts, including coding and non-coding, in an individual or a population of cells”

This workshop demonstrates how to perform analysis of RNA sequencing data following the tidy data paradigm (Wickham and others 2014). The tidy data paradigm provides a standard way to organise data values within a dataset, where each variable is a column, each observation is a row, and data is manipulated using an easy-to-understand vocabulary. Most importantly, the data structure remains consistent across manipulation and analysis functions. For more information, see the R for Data Science chapter on tidy data here.
The tidyverse is a collection of packages that can be used to tidy, manipulate and visualise data. We’ll use many functions from the tidyverse in this workshop, such as filter
, select
, mutate
, pivot_longer
and ggplot
.
