Trelliscope is a component in the DeltaRho environment.

For those familiar with Trellis Display, faceting in ggplot, or the notion of small multiples, Trelliscope provides a scalable way to break a set of data into pieces, apply a plot method to each piece, and then arrange those plots in a grid and interactively sort, filter, and query panels of the display based on metrics of interest. With Trelliscope, we are able to create multipanel displays on data with a very large number of subsets and view them in an interactive and meaningful way.

  • Single-SNP GWAS with RGWAS.normal function
  • SNP-set (or gene set) GWAS with RGWAS.multisnp function (which tests multiple SNPs at the same time)
  • Check epistatic (SNP-set x SNP-set interaction) effects with RGWAS.epistasis (very slow and less reliable)

It is free to use, and always will be. Printed copies are available from CRC Press.

Live online courses on statistics with R based on this book, led by the author, are offered regularly; see this page for more information and dates.

The past decades have transformed the world of statistical data analysis, with new methods, new types of data, and new computational tools. The aim of Modern Statistics with R is to introduce you to key parts of the modern statistical toolkit. It teaches you:

  • Data wrangling - importing, formatting, reshaping, merging, and filtering data in R.
  • Exploratory data analysis - using visualisations and multivariate techniques to explore datasets.
  • Statistical inference - modern methods for testing hypotheses and computing confidence intervals.
  • Predictive modelling - regression models and machine learning methods for prediction, classification, and forecasting.
  • Simulation - using simulation techniques for sample size computations and evaluations of statistical methods.
  • Ethics in statistics - ethical issues and good statistical practice.
  • R programming - writing code that is fast, readable, and (hopefully!) free from bugs.

The book includes plenty of examples and more than 200 exercises with worked solutions. The datasets used for the examples and the exercises can be downloaded here.

Most of the Bioinformatics work that is done can be described as analyzing biological data, although a growing number of projects deal with the organization of biological information. The global Bioinformatics industry has grown at a double-digit growth rate in the past and is expected to follow the same pattern in the next four years. US remains the largest market in the world, but Asia-Pacific countries, particularly India and China, are witnessing the fastest growth and are anticipated to emerge as the dominating forces in future. The Comparison of Bioinformatics Industry between Malaysia, India and other countries are discussed in this http://ijbssnet.com/journals/Vol.%202_No._10;_June_2011/11.pdf paper.

Bioinformatics is full of opportunities. The sector is poised to open new avenues for the other related sectors also. But the biggest opportunity area in the Bioinformatics market will be in the drug discovery sector. Reduction of both the cost and time taken to discover a new drug due to fast development in the Bioinformatics tools and software zone is also making drug discovery an attractive field to venture in. Malaysian bioinformatics growth and future are discuss in this https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2723929/ paper. Keeping all such inportance in mind, following universities in Malaysia offering bioinformatics cources:
