Thanks Gordon-
I'll definitely look into using camera. I have a naive question though. If
I use voom() to transform the RNA-Seq count data, does this transformation
change the data from discrete to continuous? And if so, can I just use the E
values in the EList object that is outputted from voom() as input to GSEA (Broad
version)? I would assume I wouldn't need the weights b/c GSEA does not assume a
specific distribution (it is empirically calculated via subject sampling), so I
wouldn't need to adjust the data for heteroscedasticity to fit a "normal" or any
other pre-set distribution??
Thanks,
Julie
