Model Articles: Transcriptomic Profiling

Transcriptomic profiling with RNA-seq is increasingly common. Often, RNA-seq is used a first step to discover genes, followed by manipulation of said genes to show a causal relationship with some phenotype. That’s often the case, but sometimes, just the transcriptomic data are reported without any follow-up perturbations. The volume of data one gets from transcriptomic studies is huge, and reporting the findings in a clear and insightful way can be a challenging.

I’m struggling with this issue right now. But thankfully, there are some good papers to use as models for my own writing. Here are a few that I’ve found helpful.
