My main projects

The EZbakR-suite

Summary

  • Introduced Snakemake pipeline (fastq2EZbakR) and R package (EZbakR)
  • Generalizes feature assignment: the set of annotated genomic features that you can perform analyses on.
  • Generalizes mixture modeling: how the fraction of reads from labeled RNA are estimated.
  • Generalizes dynamical systems modeling: how kinetic parameters are estimated from NR-seq data.
  • Generalizes comparative analyses: how kinetic parameters are compared across biological conditions.

bakR

Summary

  • Introduced an R package (bakR) designed to compare RNA synthesis and degradation rate constants across biological conditions.
  • Also introduced a hierarchical modeling strategy to increase statistical power of these comparisons.
