Microarray package
From BioPerl
A collection of Perl modules for manipulating some microarray data formats, mostly Affymetrix. This package was started by Allen Day.
Package Status
- When asked in January 2007 Allen suggested people may want to use Bioconductor instead (read that email and this email).
- A possible new direction to take these modules could be using them as a bridge between Bioconductor data analyses and various BioPerl object models (i.e. Bio::Seq, Bio::Seq::RichSeq, etc.). Maybe some bioperl-run-based wrappers, bioperl-db adaptors?.
- Christopher Jones has published an article in Bioinformatics about his Microarray perl module in CPAN.
