tidyFlowCore: Bringing flowCore to the tidyverse

Bioconductor version: 3.23 · Package version: 1.6.0

tidyFlowCore bridges the gap between flow cytometry analysis using the flowCore Bioconductor package and the tidy data principles advocated by the tidyverse. It provides a suite of dplyr-, ggplot2-, and tidyr-like verbs specifically designed for working with flowFrame and flowSet objects as if they were tibbles; however, your data remain flowCore data structures under this layer of abstraction. tidyFlowCore enables intuitive and streamlined analysis workflows that can leverage both the Bioconductor and tidyverse ecosystems for cytometry data.
