"Dependency" in Drug Sensitivity Data #80

Closed abalter closed 2 years ago

abalter commented 2 years ago

The fourth column in the table downloaded by depmap_drug_sensitivity() is "dependency." Should that be "sensitivity?"

How does this column relate to the GDSC measures of ic50, auc, etc.?

This dataset is also referred to as "chemical dependency" data, and hence this column is also a "dependency". You can read more about this dataset here: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.02.03.932384v1
