devel is the development version; release is the current stable one.

3.24 (devel), 3.23 (release)

This package provides publicly available data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) as MultiAssayExperiment objects. MultiAssayExperiment integrates multiple assays (e.g., RNA-seq, copy number, mutation, microRNA, protein, and others) with clinical / pathological data. It also links assay barcodes with patient identifiers, enabling harmonized subsetting of rows (features) and columns (patients / samples) across the entire multi-'omics experiment.
