How to use Mantle for biological data analysis

Open a Mantle Notebook and…

1

Upload data to Mantle

  • Select one of the built-in data types, e.g. rnaseq_fastq. Or, if nothing fits, use the custom_file or custom_directory types.
2

Process instrument data files

  • Often, biological data is in bespoke file types and/or in an unstructured format, and needs to be processed before it undergo statistical analysis.
  • Process files using Python or a pipeline.
3

Explore and discover

  • Data that is tabular is ready for statistical analysis, machine learning, and plotting.
  • Use custom Python code with packages like Scanpy, Scipy, PyTorch, Scikit-Learn, etc. in a Mantle Notebook.
  • Create graphs for the team meeting or publication.
