Overview

• IGV review
• Tracktables
• Visualising our data

IGV

• IGV is a genome browser which
  • Runs locally
  • Can include Sample Metadata
  • Can visualise most data types

IGV

• One particular advantage for IGV is that is allows control though URL request.
  • This means you can create links to load files and jumo to locations
• We will show you more later

For more on IGV visit our course

Tracktables

• Bioconductor package to speed up visualisation of data in IGV
• Translates samplesheets of metadata and file locations into XML and config files.
• Creates standalone or intergratable HTML fragments which control IGV.

To learn more about tracktables

• visit our Bioconductor page
• Our flash talk at Bioc 2015 (9/12/2015)

Time for some practical code!
