All functions

DGE_analysis()

Perform differential expression analysis using a pseudobulk approach on single-cell data

bulk_downsampling_DGEanalysis()

bulk_downsampling_range()

Obtain the range of values to downsample at (either for individuals, or mean number of cells per individual), for bulk analysis

bulk_power_analysis()

Perform cross-dataset power analysis using scRNA-seq and bulk RNA-seq DEG overlap

compute_downsampled_corr()

For a given down-sampled DGE analysis output, computes the correlation of the log-foldchange of the DEGs (at specified p-value) for a given dataset (celltype)

correlation_analysis()

Perform correlation analysis of DEG effect sizes between single-cell datasets

correlation_boxplots()

Obtain box plots for the correlations of all celltypes, and the mean correlations at a specified cutoff p-value

differential_expression()

Differential Expression Analysis using edgeR LRT on pseudobulk data

downsampling_DEanalysis()

Downsample the dataset, based either on the individuals or cells, and run DE analysis on each downsampled output. Save results in a dataframe
