Infer Ligand-Receptor Interactions from bulk expression (transcriptomics/proteomics) data, or spatial transcriptomics


Bioconductor version: Release (3.23)

Inference of ligand-receptor (LR) interactions from bulk expression (transcriptomics/proteomics) data, or spatial transcriptomics. BulkSignalR bases its inferences on the LRdb database included in our other package, SingleCellSignalR available from Bioconductor. It relies on a statistical model that is specific to bulk data sets. Different visualization and data summary functions are proposed to help navigating prediction results.
