Unified Code for Units of Measure (UCUM) is a code system intended to include all units of measures being contemporarily used in international science, engineering, and business.

SpatialDE is a method to find spatially variable genes (SVG) from spatial transcriptomics data. This package provides wrappers to use the Python SpatialDE library in R, using reticulate and basilisk.

multiHiCcompare provides functions for joint normalization and difference detection in multiple Hi-C datasets. This extension of the original HiCcompare package now allows for Hi-C experiments with more than 2 groups and multiple samples per group. multiHiCcompare operates on processed Hi-C data in the form of sparse upper triangular matrices. It accepts four column (chromosome, region1, region2, IF) tab-separated text files storing chromatin interaction matrices. multiHiCcompare provides cyclic loess and fast loess (fastlo) methods adapted to jointly normalizing Hi-C data. Additionally, it provides a general linear model (GLM) framework adapting the edgeR package to detect differences in Hi-C data in a distance dependent manner.

SPAdes (St. Petersburg genome assembler) is an assembly toolkit containing various assembly pipelines and the de-facto standard for prokaryotic genome assemblies.

Functions to summarize DNA methylation data using regional principal components. Regional principal components are computed using principal components analysis within genomic regions to summarize the variability in methylation levels across CpGs. The number of principal components is chosen using either the Marcenko-Pasteur or Gavish-Donoho method to identify relevant signal in the data.

Agent skill for AI-assisted scientific manuscript writing review distilled from Stanford's *Writing in the Sciences* course, performing five sequential editorial audit passes on clarity, voice, structure, consistency, and integrity (2026)

A comprehensive toolkit that bridges popular Python-based immune repertoire analysis tools and Hugging Face protein language models into the R environment. Provides unified interfaces for TCR distance calculations (tcrdist3), sequence generation probability (OLGA), selection inference (soNNia), clustering (clusTCR), protein embeddings (ESM-2), metaclone discovery (metaclonotypist). Fully compatible with the scRepertoire and immApex ecosystem for single-cell immune repertoire analysis.

scToppR provides an easy-to-use API wrapper for the ToppGene web platform, used for gene ontology and functional enrichment research. The package also integrates visualization tools, making it a convenient tool directly connecting ToppGene to code-based workflows in R. The tool can also easily save results into different formats.

Universal pretrained neural network potential with charge and magnetic moment awareness, trained on 1.5M+ Materials Project inorganic structures for charge-informed molecular dynamics and phase diagram prediction (Berkeley, Nature Machine Intelligence 2023 Cover)

Foundation model for universal cell segmentation achieving state-of-the-art performance across bacteria, tissue, yeast, cell culture, and diverse imaging modalities (brightfield, fluorescence, phase), with pip-installable inference and Napari plugin (vanvalenlab/Caltech, bioRxiv 2024)
