Research Objectives
lrRNA-seq data analysis is poorly accessible to users without bioinformatics expertise. OmicsBox is a user-friendly software with modules for RNA-seq and functional enrichment analysis. lrRNA-seq is not yet supported. Our objectives are:
- Compare existing long reads analysis pipelines for mapping, quantification, and differential expression analysis in non-model species.
- Develop novel pathway analysis method for isoform-resolved data.
- Implement methods in OmicsBox user-friendly software.
Envisioned Secondments
- UU-SciLifeLab (Adam Ameur). Learn library preparation methods and collaborate in Aim 1.
- CNRS (Pascal Barbry): Compare OmicsBox methods to Barbry’s AI methods.
