marker gene selection using logistic regression and regularization for scRNAseq

why this blog post? I saw a biorxiv paper titled A comparison of marker gene selection methods for single-cell RNA sequencing data Our results highlight the efficacy of simple methods, especially the Wilcoxon rank-sum test, Student’s t-test and logistic regression I am interested in using logistic regression to find marker genes and want to try fitting the model in the tidymodel ecosystem and using different regularization methods.

CANCER IMMUNOLOGIC DATA COMMONS(CIDC)

The Cancer Immunologic Data Commons (CIDC), hosted by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, will serve the bioinformatics needs of the network, optimization of data collection methodologies suitable for immune-related biomarkers, data integration and building a biomarker database for the secondary use by the large immuno-oncology community.
