Effect of Normalization on Statistical and Biological Interpretation of Gene Expression Profiles

A neglected aspect of the genetic analysis of gene expression is the impact of normalization on biological inference. Here we contrast nine different methods for normalization of an Illumina bead-array gene expression profiling dataset consisting of peripheral blood samples from 189 individual part...
