Description

The VISTA (Visualization and Integrated System for Transcriptomic Analysis) platform streamlines differential expression workflows by wrapping DESeq2 and edgeR into a SummarizedExperiment-based container with consistent metadata. The package includes visualization utilities, MSigDB enrichment helpers, and optional deconvolution support to simplify interactive exploration of RNA-seq experiments.
