Data Science Case: ATAC+RNA-Seq Analysis Challenge

What is this?
In this repo you will find a bundle of data, code and notebooks for reproducibly generating and showcasing the analyses applied to solve a specific data science case (DSC).

Why is this here?
Learning and training – feel free to clone and re-run the analysis and suggest how it could be improved :) I will update it incrementally as my own skills and knowledge develop.

About the Case We are tasked to analyse (within 2 weeks) processed ATAC-Seq and RNA-Seq datasets derived from an experiment comparing treatment vs control. All we know about the context is that the treatment group is thought to activate a transcriptional program via remodelling of the chromatin structure.

Aims

  1. Identify genes that may be regulated in this fashion.
  2. Identify the possible transcriptional programs involved.
  3. Present candidate transcription factors that may be responsible for the underlying regulation.

Note: This commit represents the bundle as it was delivered for assessment after 2 weeks work (21/10/2019).
