tidySpatialExperiment
Bioc currentSpatialExperiment with tidy principles
Release Lineage
Entered 3.19 · May 1, 2024
Current · Requires R 4.6
Description
tidySpatialExperiment provides a bridge between the SpatialExperiment package and the tidyverse ecosystem. It creates an invisible layer that allows you to interact with a SpatialExperiment object as if it were a tibble; enabling the use of functions from dplyr, tidyr, ggplot2 and plotly. But, underneath, your data remains a SpatialExperiment object.
