CM4.2 Exploring genomic data in R

Authors: Wojciech Lason, Helen Lockstone, Gavin Band

Welcome! In this tutorial you will use R and the command-line to do some more advanced analysis of genetic data.

We will load gene annotation files, link to genetic variants, and make some plots.

To get started, let's make a new directory to work in using a command-line terminal:

mkdir genes_tutorial
cd genes_tutorial

Also start a new R notebook and make sure it is working in this directory as well (e.g. using setwd()).

Now go to the warm-up.
