= Using R to evaluate DGE for differential expression =

Robinson MD, Smyth GK. (2007). '''Moderated statistical tests for assessing differences in tag abundance.''' Bioinformatics. 23(21):2881-7. PMID: 17881408

The authors of this paper develop a statistical test using a negative binomial distribution to model noise in the data. They release R code (available at [http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/resources/ bioinf.wehi.edu.au/resources/]) to support their treatment, but it is uncommented, and not functional as is.

Here I apply the code and examine the results in a sample data set.
