HuBMAPR: an R client for the HuBMAP data portal.

Abstract

Summary: The Human BioMolecular Atlas Program (HuBMAP) constructs the worldwide available platform to research the human body at the cellular level. The HuBMAP Data Portal encompasses a wide range of data resources measured on emerging experimental technologies at a spatial resolution. To broaden access to the HuBMAP Data Portal, we introduce an R client called HuBMAPR available on Bioconductor. This provides an efficient and programmatic interface that enables researchers to discover and retrieve HuBMAP data more easily and quickly.

Availability and implementation: HuBMAPR is available at https://bioconductor.org/packages/HuBMAPR.
