shinyGEO

shinyGEO is a web-based tool that allows a user to download the expression and sample data from a Gene Expression Omnibus dataset, select a gene of interest, and perform a survival or differential expression analysis using the available data. For both analyses, shinyGEO produces publication-ready graphics and generates R code ensuring that all analyses are reproducible. The tool is developed using shiny, a web application framework for R, a language for statistical computing and graphics.
