Abstract
Recently, efforts have been made toward the harmonization of transcriptomic data structures and workflows using the concept of data tidiness, to facilitate modularisation. We present tidybulk, a modular framework for bulk transcriptional analyses that introduces a tidy transcriptomic data structure paradigm and analysis grammar. Tidybulk covers a wide variety of analysis procedures and integrates a large ecosystem of publicly available analysis algorithms under a common framework. Tidybulk decreases coding burden, facilitates reproducibility, increases efficiency for expert users, lowers the learning curve for inexperienced users, and bridges transcriptional data analysis with the tidyverse...
