miaverse: R/Bioconductor framework for microbiome data science
We are envisioning to rethink microbiome data science in R/Bioconductor.
This is an open source project developing R/Bioc methods,
benchmarking data, and educational material for microbiome research
based on the SummarizedExperiment class and its derivatives. New
contributions are very welcome. The current project brings together
the following key elements:
Data
Methods (R packages)
- mia for microbiome data analysis and manipulation
- miaViz for microbiome visualization
- miaSim
for generating simulated microbiome data
- External packages supporting the framework
Documentation
Example case studies and workflows are now being collected in an online reference manual, Orchestrating Microbiome Analysis with R/Bioconductor manual (beta version; under preparation). Also see the individual package vignettes for details.
