This workshop demonstrates the use of the iSEE package to create and configure interactive applications for the exploration of various types of genomics data sets (e.g., bulk and single-cell RNA-seq, CyTOF, gene expression microarray).
This workshop will be presented as a lab session that combines an instructor-led live demo, followed by hands-on experimentation guided by exercises, hints, and comprehensive solutions that participants may continue to use after the workshop.
The instructor-led live demo comprises three parts:
- Overview of the preprocessed data set used for this workshop.
- Brief demonstration of graphical user interface and package functionality.
- Hands-on exercises and discussion.
Participants are encouraged to ask questions at any time during the workshop.
- Basic knowledge of R syntax and the use of data-frames
- Familiarity with the SummarizedExperiment and SingleCellExperiment classes
- Familiarity with the shiny CRAN package
- Familiarity with the TENxPBMCData package and vignette

- The iSEEu package for extending the functionality of iSEE
Students will participate by following along an R markdown document, and asking questions throughout the workshop. There is also scope for participants to apply iSEE to their own data sets, and fuel the discussion with more questions about specific use cases.
