tidyFlowCore
tidyFlowCore bridges the gap between flow cytometry analysis using the flowCore Bioconductor package and the tidy data principles advocated by the tidyverse. It provides a suite of dplyr-, ggplot2-, and tidyr-like verbs specifically designed for working with flowFrame and flowSet objects as if they were tibbles; however, your data remain flowCore data structures under this layer of abstraction. tidyFlowCore enables intuitive and streamlined analysis workflows that can leverage both the Bioconductor and tidyverse ecosystems for cytometry data.

Stamps Seurat, SingleCellExperiment, and SummarizedExperiment objects with a persistent metadata passport. For Seurat objects the passport is stored in the misc slot; for SingleCellExperiment and SummarizedExperiment objects it is stored in the metadata slot. Tracks animal info, experiment details, lineage (parent/child relationships), RDS registry numbers, processing logs, and custom fields. Includes an interactive Shiny gadget to fill and update the passport, and a read mode to print the full passport to console. The passport persists inside the RDS file with no external files needed.
Identifies differentially abundant populations between samples and groups in mass cytometry data. Provides methods for counting cells into hyperspheres, controlling the spatial false discovery rate, and visualizing changes in abundance in the high-dimensional marker space.
The LoomExperiment package provide a means to easily convert the Bioconductor "Experiment" classes to loom files and vice versa.
'HuBMAP' provides an open, global bio-molecular atlas of the human body at the cellular level. The `datasets()`, `samples()`, `donors()`, `publications()`, and `collections()` functions retrieves the information for each of these entity types. `*_details()` are available for individual entries of each entity type. `*_derived()` are available for retrieving derived datasets or samples for individual entries of each entity type. Data files can be accessed using `bulk_data_transfer()`.
The package allows users to readily import spatial data obtained from either the 10X website or from the Space Ranger pipeline. Supported formats include tar.gz, h5, and mtx files. Multiple files can be imported at once with *List type of functions. The package represents data mainly as SpatialExperiment objects.
With the dedicated fortify method implemented for flowSet, ncdfFlowSet and GatingSet classes, both raw and gated flow cytometry data can be plotted directly with ggplot. ggcyto wrapper and some customed layers also make it easy to add gates and population statistics to the plot.
