Agent skill fromaipoch/medical-research-skills
Use when analyzing bulk RNA-seq or microarray expression data to identify differentially expressed genes between two biological groups (case vs control), with volcano plots and heatmap visualization. NOT for:single-cell RNA-seq, methylation analysis, non-expression data.
