	<title><![CDATA[Which are the best statistical programming languages to study for a bioinformatician?]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>In Bio-informatics based&nbsp;genome sequencing and predicting metabolic pathways&nbsp;research jobs&nbsp;I used Matlab, SAS, SPSS, R and several Bioconductor packages. Matlab had a lot of powerful tools and was easy to use, whereas SPSS is for non-programmers and R need programming skills. I am wondering what other people think is best? or there might not be one specific language but a few that lend themselves best to Bio-informatics work that is math heavy and deals with a large amount of data.</span></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>It describe the GAGE (Luo et al., 2009) /Pahview (Luo and Brouwer, 2013) workflows on&nbsp;RNA-Seq data pathway analysis and gene-set analysis.&nbsp;<span>The gage package (2.12.0) now includes a new tutorial, &ldquo;RNA-Seq Data Pathway and Gene-set Analysis Workflows&ldquo;.</span></p><p>First cover a full workflow from preparation, reads counting, data preprocessing, gene set test, to pathway visualization in about 40 lines of codes. The same workflow can be used for GO analysis or other types of gene set analysis too. We also describe joint workflows, i.e. to do gene-level analysis using one of the major RNA-Seq analysis tools, DEseq/DEseq2, edgeR, limma and Cufflinks, and feed the results into GAGE/Pahview for pathway analysis or visualization. All these workflows are implemented in R/Bioconductor.</p><p>The work ows cover the most common situations and issues for RNA-Seq data pathway analysis. Issues like&nbsp;data quality assessment are relevant for data analysis in general yet out the scope of this tutorial. Although we&nbsp;focus on RNA-Seq data here, but pathway analysis work ow remains similar for microarray, particularly step&nbsp;3-4 would be the same. Please check gage and pathview vigenttes for details.</p><p>Note: You need to update to current release versions of R(3.0.2)/ Bioconductor(2.13) to use all the features.&nbsp;</p><p>Reference:&nbsp;</p><p>Please check it out:<br /><a href="http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/gage.html">http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/gage.html</a><br /><a href="http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/gage/inst/doc/RNA-seqWorkflow.pdf">http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/gage/inst/doc/RNA-seqWorkflow.pdf</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[GrapheR !!!]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>What a wonderful gem <em>GrapheR</em> is.... Oh yes it is. <em>GrapheR</em> is a GUI for base graphics in R by http://www.maximeherve.com/. The package provides a graphical user interface for creating base charts in R. It is ideal for beginners in R, as the user interface is very clear and the code is written along side into a text file, allowing users to recreate the charts directly in the console. <br /><br />Adding and changing legends? Messing around with the plotting window settings? It is much easier/quicker with this GUI than reading the help file and trying to understand the various parameters.<br />Here is a little example using the iris data set.<br /><br />library(GrapheR)<br />data(iris)<br />run.GrapheR()<br /><br />This will bring up a window that helps me to create the chart and tweak the various parameters.</p><p><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NbnCM1dPh3E/U9aW9YxJ9oI/AAAAAAAABgo/gEPzPhOpf2Y/s1600/GrapheR.png" alt="image" width="878" height="868" style="border: 0px; border: 0px;"><br /><br />Finally, I find the underlying R code in a file created by <em>GrapheR</em>. For more details read also the <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GrapheR/index.html" target="_blank">package vignette</a>, which is available in <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GrapheR/vignettes/manual_en.pdf" target="_blank">English</a>, <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GrapheR/vignettes/manual_fr.pdf" target="_blank">French</a> and <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/GrapheR/vignettes/manual_de.pdf" target="_blank">German</a>!</p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[R Graphical Cookbook by Winston Chang]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>R Graphical Cookbook by Winston Chang</p><p>A very nice book by Winston Chang for R ethusiast. The R code presented in these pages is the R code actually used to produce the Figures in the book. There will be differences compared to the code chunks shown in the text of the book, but in most cases the differences will be that these pages contain additional code to lay out multiple plots on a single "page".</p><p>The code presented for each figure is self-contained, i.e., all code required to produce the figure is included. This means that there is sometimes considerable overlap of code between several figures  In some cases, it may be necessary to install an add-on package from CRAN to get the code to run.</p><p>More books at http://www.e-reading.club/bookreader.php/137370/C486x_APPb.pdf</p>]]></description>
