Power analysis is essential to optimize the design of RNA-seq experiments and to assess and compare the power to detect differentially expressed genes. PowsimR is a flexible tool to simulate and evaluate differential expression from bulk and especially single-cell RNA-seq data making it suitable for a priori and posterior power analyses.
I'm confused by the wording in the help for the pLFC option in the Setup() function. If I want to check power for a constant fold change of 2, how should I be entering the pLFC option? As pLFC = log2(2) or pLFC = 2?
