I don't take it seriously; using it showed us a category of genes that seemed to have interesting changes, but we then examined the real expression changes of all the genes in the category. But I think the student used it rigorously.Rosie Redfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807912674127645263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32079676.post-50446668779022518492007-09-13T18:28:00.000-07:002007-09-13T18:28:00.000-07:00And do you have a rationale for the 2-fold cutoff?...And do you have a rationale for the 2-fold cutoff? Or is that an arbitrary cutoff value in order to limit the number of candidates?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
