Analyze Data

The GDC provides an array of interactive, web-based Analysis Tools for performing in-depth gene- and variant- level analyses. The workflow is cohort-centric, meaning analyses are specific to a researcher's cohort of interest.

• Build cohorts and perform gene and variant level analysis on the cohort
• Visualize most frequently mutated genes and somatic mutations for a cohort
• Visualize a matrix of the top most mutated cases and genes affected by high impact mutations in a cohort
• Perform a survival analysis for cases with a mutated form of a certain gene and cases without the mutation
• Visualize mutations and their frequency across cases mapped to a graphical visualization of protein-coding regions
• Visualize the top most variably expressed genes in a cohort
• Visualize sequencing reads for a given gene, position, SNP, or variant
• Use clinical variables to perform basic statistical analysis of a cohort
• Compare custom gene or case sets by visualizing set similarities and differences
