ImmuneSpace modules: ImmuneSpace provides a set of standardized modules – available under the Modules tab within each study – to explore datasets, and perform specific analyses. Currently, the following modules are available:
For specific examples with ImmuneSpace data, please visit study SDY269, which has all of the modules enabled.
Accessing ImmuneSpace data from R: In addition to the modules described above, we have also created the ImmuneSpaceR package to incorporate ImmuneSpace data into your current R workflow. ImmuneSpaceR is a thin wrapper around the Rlabkey package to query the ImmuneSpace database from R. It greatly simplifies access to data by taking advantage of the standardization of the ImmuneSpace database to hide all the Rlabkey specific code away from the user. ImmuneSpaceR will make it easy to use ImmuneSpace data to perform complex cross-assay and cross-study analyses leveraging the power of R and Bioconductor. Please refer to the ImmuneSpaceR manual for further details on installation and usage.
Other tools of interest developed by the HIPC and ImmPort communities: Through HIPC and ImmPort, NIAID has funded the development of several other tools that might be of interests to ImmuneSpace users. Some of these are listed below:
