ClonalSim generates realistic mutational profiles of tumor samples with hierarchical clonal structure. It simulates founder, shared, and private mutations with biologically realistic noise models including intra-tumor heterogeneity (Beta distribution) and technical sequencing noise (negative binomial depth variation, binomial read sampling, base errors). The package is designed for benchmarking variant callers, testing clonal deconvolution algorithms, and teaching tumor heterogeneity concepts.

Tools for analyzing SingleCellExperiment objects as projects. for input into the chevreulShiny app downstream. Includes functions for analysis of single cell RNA sequencing data. Supported by NIH grants R01CA137124 and R01EY026661 to David Cobrinik.

Provides efficient containers for storing and manipulating short genomic alignments (typically obtained by aligning short reads to a reference genome). This includes read counting, computing the coverage, junction detection, and working with the nucleotide content of the alignments.

Subtypes are defined as groups of samples that have distinct molecular and clinical features. Genomic data can be analyzed for discovering patient subtypes, associated with clinical data, especially for survival information. This package is aimed to identify subtypes that are both clinically relevant and biologically meaningful.

The package implements two main algorithms to answer two key questions: a SCORE (Stable Clustering at Optimal REsolution) to find subpopulations, followed by scGPS to investigate the relationships between subpopulations.

This R package helps the user identify k-mers (e.g. di- or tri-nucleotides) present periodically in a set of genomic loci (typically regulatory elements). The functions of this package provide a straightforward approach to find periodic occurrences of k-mers in DNA sequences, such as regulatory elements. It is not aimed at identifying motifs separated by a conserved distance; for this type of analysis, please visit MEME website.
