stageR: a general stage-wise method for controlling the gene-level false discovery rate in differential expression and differential transcript usage

Abstract RNA sequencing studies with complex designs and transcript-resolution analyses involve multiple hypotheses per gene; however, conventional approaches fail to control the false discovery rate (FDR) at gene level. We propose stageR, a two-stage testing paradigm that leverages the increased po...
