synapsis
Synapsis is a Bioconductor software package for automated (unbiased and reproducible) analysis of meiotic immunofluorescence datasets. The primary functions of the software can i) identify cells in meiotic prophase that are labelled by a synaptonemal complex axis or central element protein, ii) isolate individual synaptonemal complexes and measure their physical length, iii) quantify foci and co-localise them with synaptonemal complexes, iv) measure interference between synaptonemal complex-associated foci. The software has applications that extend to multiple species and to the analysis of other proteins that label meiotic prophase chromosomes. The software converts meiotic immunofluorescence images into R data frames that are compatible with machine learning methods. Given a set of microscopy images of meiotic spread slides, synapsis crops images around individual single cells, counts colocalising foci on strands on a per cell basis, and measures the distance between foci on any given strand.

Low- and high-level wrappers for Gemma's RESTful API. They enable access to curated expression and differential expression data from over 10,000 published studies. Gemma is a web site, database and a set of tools for the meta-analysis, re-use and sharing of genomics data, currently primarily targeted at the analysis of gene expression profiles.
Builds prediction interval for cell type annotation using conformal inference and conformal risk control. It provides two main methods. The first one gives prediction intervals with coverage guarantees based on standard conformal inference. The second one instead gives hierarchical prediction intervals that are consistent with the cell ontology.

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.
This package primarily identifies variants in mitochondrial genomes from BAM alignment files. It filters these variants to remove RNA editing events then estimates their evolutionary relationship (i.e. their phylogenetic tree) and groups single cells into clones. It also visualizes the mutations and providing additional genomic context.
