The statistical universe is a single patient – pathway analysis from “N-of-1” RNA-Seq data

rna-seq

The emergence of precision medicine allowed the incorporation of individual molecular data into patient care. Indeed, DNA sequencing predicts somatic mutations in individual patients. However, these genetic features overlook dynamic epigenetic and phenotypic response to therapy. Meanwhile, accurate personal transcriptome ...
