metaRNASeq package for meta-analysis of RNA-Seq data

Participant : Guillemette Marot.

This is joint work with Andrea Rau (INRA, Jouy-en-Josas). metaRNASeq is a specialised software for RNA-seq experiments. It is an R package which is an adaptation of the metaMA package presented previously. Both implement the same kind of methods but specificities of the two types of technologies require some adaptations to each one. metaRNASeq is now available on CRAN (http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/metaRNASeq/index.html ).
