70 The future of RNA-seq (now) Single Cell Shalek, et al. Nature 2013

71 The future of RNA-seq (now) Single Cell Huge Cohort Genotype-Tissue Expression project (GTEx) 900 donors 30,000 RNA-seq data sets! Shalek, et al. Nature 2013 Lonsdale, et al. Nature Genetics 2013

72 Summary 1 Choose an alignment approach suitable for your experiment, available resources and tools 2 Assess library quality, specifically rrna contamination, insert size, strand specificity and library complexity 3 Gene and Feature Expression can be calculated using count data, and normalised by length, library size and GC content 4 Transcript expression calculation requires alternative approaches and algorithms, which although common, are largely unproven 5 RNA-seq can interrogate nucleotide specific questions, but be careful of alignment biases (diploid mapping can help here)
