Meta-analysis component #68

Open kelshmo opened 4 years ago

How will this fit into the overall workflow? I think a separate and distinct plan is best to accommodate the output from several cohorts.

The meta-analysis will:

  1. Accept residual expression and covariate matrices
  2. Compute n, mean and sd per gene per x condition (or per x and y,z conditions). x is the outcome variable. <what are the implications of this being a list?>
  3. Meta-analysis of continuous outcome, experimental v. control, computed on every gene. One effect per gene, across all conditions.
