Assembling cell context-specific gene sets: a case in cardiomyopathy

An increasing amount of evidence suggests that canonical pathways and standard molecular signature databases are incomplete and inadequate to model the complex behavior of cell physiology and pathology. Yet, many Gene Set Analysis (GSA) studies still rely on these databases to identify disease bioma...
