	<h2>Features</h2>

	<ul>
	<li><b>R Apps</b>:
	Offering an auto generated and unified graphical user interface for computational packages in R and repositories such as Bioconductor.
	</li>
	<li><b>Interactive Apps</b>:
	several native apps provide exploration and brushing operations.
	</li>
	<li><b>Chaining Apps</b>:
	The apps can be chained together to create more powerful analysis workflows.
	</li>
	<li><b>Built-in genome browser integration</b>:
	Integrated with the Integrative Genome Viewer (IGV).
	</li>
	<li><b>Data manipulation</b>:
	Creating data tables and processing sequencing data into data columns.
	</li>
	<li><b>Computations on data columns</b>: Using an excel or R syntax.
	</li>
	</ul>
