Bioconductor

the mission of the bioconductor project is to develop, support, and disseminate free open source software that facilitates rigorous and reproducible analysis of data from current and emerging biological assays. we are dedicated to building a diverse, collaborative, and welcoming community of developers and data scientists. bioconductor uses the r statistical programming language, and is open source and open development. it has two releases each year, and an active user community. bioconductor is also available as docker images. the bioconductor project started in 2001 and is overseen by a core team (https://www.bioconductor.org/about/core-team/), based primarily in boston, and by other members from us and international institutions. a community advisory board (cab) (https://bioconductor.org/about/community-advisory-board/) and and a technical advisory board (tab) (https://bioconductor.org/about/technical-advisory-board/) consist of volunteers from the core team and community. the boa
