Nice work with my Australian friends, based on the PhD thesis of Paul Rippon. Assessing the distributional assumption of GLMs is often skipped ...
smooth goodness of fit tests for testing the distributional assumption in regression models.

Last week we had a successful 4-day workshop on microbiome data analysis, organised at UHasselt (Center for Environmental Sciences and Data Science Institute). Thanks to all 140 participants for making it a very interactive experience! @uhasselt @CMK_Uhasselt @DSI_Uhasselt

Very useful app for selecting an appropriate method for testing for differential expression with RNASeq data
R shiny app that provide a guidance on selection of the optimal DE pipeline based on a large non-parametric simulation study

Very interesting (must read) book about the origin of life from a bio-energetic perspective. I realised that genomics does not tell the whole story.

Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are typically expressed at low levels and are inherently highly variable. This is a fundamental challenge for differential expression (DE) analysis. In this...
