Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) provide us with a wealth of data, such as RNA-seq, DNA Methylation, SNP and Copy number variation data. It's easy to download data from TCGA using the gdc tool, but processing these data into a format suitable for bioinformatics analysis requires more work. This R package was developed to handle these data.

The software uses the copy number segments from a text file and identifies all chromosome arms that are globally altered and computes various genome-wide scores. The following HRD scores (characteristic of BRCA-mutated cancers) are included: LST, HR-LOH, nLST and gLOH. the package is tailored for the ThermoFisher Oncoscan assay analyzed with their Chromosome Alteration Suite (ChAS) but can be adapted to any input.

gINTomics is an R package for Multi-Omics data integration and visualization. gINTomics is designed to detect the association between the expression of a target and of its regulators, taking into account also their genomics modifications such as Copy Number Variations (CNV) and methylation. What is more, gINTomics allows integration results visualization via a Shiny-based interactive app.

This package is intended to identify differentially expressed genes driven by Copy Number Alterations from samples with both gene expression and CNA data.

"Methylation-Aware Genotype Association in R" (MAGAR) computes methQTL from DNA methylation and genotyping data from matched samples. MAGAR uses a linear modeling stragety to call CpGs/SNPs that are methQTLs. MAGAR accounts for the local correlation structure of CpGs.

Contains functions and classes that are needed by arrayCGH packages.
