Overview: This package has been developed specifically for wildlife endocrinologist. The package contains data analysis tools that facilitate analysis of longitudinal endocrine data. Currently, the package performs three main functions: 1) calculates iterative baseline measurement (using mean + n*SD method); 2) calculates the area under the curve (using trapezoidal method); and 3) contains a suite of plotting tools to produce longitudinal profiles. We have minimized the amount of R coding required by the user, so even non-R users can utilize the package.
In your R editor, type the following R code:
install.packages('devtools')
install.packages('Rcurl')
library(devtools)
install_github('bfanson/hormLong')
library(hormLong)
