iUSEiSEE

The iSEE package is a flexible, powerful and extensible application to explore any dataset stored in a SummarizedExperiment object. In turn, any dataset that can be shaped into one or more numerical matrices ("rectangular" datasets) can easily be put into a SummarizedExperiment object. This includes many types of bulk, single cell and spatially resolved biological data, as well as many non-biological data types.

iSEE enables a multitude of panels to gain in-depth insight in your data; it does so combining interactivity and reproducibility, and provides an ideal tool for deeper dives into your data.

How to install

To follow this workshop, first install R and RStudio, e.g. following the instructions here. Next, within an R session, the workshop package and all required dependencies can be installed from GitHub as follows:

install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("iSEE/iUSEiSEE", 
                     dependencies = TRUE, 
                     build_vignettes = TRUE)

How to run this workshop

• Clone the GitHub repository to a local folder on your computer.
• Open the iUSEiSEE.Rproj project file in RStudio.
• Navigate to the vignettes folder.
• Open the individual R Markdown files and execute their content live!

Schedule

• Installation of the dependencies and tech check.
• Retrieval and inspection of example data.
• Overview of iSEE: panel by panel, learning Data + Visual + Selection parameters.
• Hands-on practice using the recipes from the iSEE cookbook.
• Exploring extension packages from the iSEE universe: iSEEde and iSEEpathways for differential expression and pathways, iSEEhub and iSEEindex for managing multiple datasets.
• Easy generation of initial configurations with iSEEfier.
• Definition of a new, custom panel type.
