In easybio: Comprehensive Single-Cell Annotation and Transcriptomic Analysis Toolkit

easybio

easybio provides a comprehensive toolkit for single-cell RNA-seq annotation using the CellMarker2.0 database. It streamlines the process of assigning biological labels in scRNA-seq data, integrating seamlessly with tools like Seurat. While the package includes additional bioinformatics workflows, such as handling TCGA and GEO datasets, differential expression analysis, and enrichment analysis visualization, for details specifically on the single-cell annotation functionality, please refer to the bioRxiv preprint.

Download and Usage

You can install the development version of easybio from GitHub with:

devtools::install("person-c/easybio", build_vignettes = TRUE)

To know how to use this package, please see the wiki or run:

vignette(topic = "example-bulk-rna-seq-workflow", package = 'easybio')
vignette(topic = "example-single-cell-annotation", package = "easybio")
