HTSvis: a web app for exploratory data analysis and visualization of arrayed high-throughput screens
About
Arrayed high-throughput screens (HTS) cover a broad range of applications using RNAi or small molecules as perturbations and specialized software packages for statistical analysis have become available. However, exploratory data analysis and integration of screening results has remained challenging due to the size of the data sets and the lack of user-friendly tools for interpretation and visualization of screening results. Here we present HTSvis, a web application to interactively visualize raw data, perform quality control and assess screening results from single to multi-channel measurements such as image-based screens. Per well aggregated raw and analyzed data of various assay types and scales can be loaded in a generic tabular format.

Session Parameter Download
The option to download a session parameter file is provided here. The downloaded file contains the Data Input parameters as set on the 'Data Input tab' and the controls defined in the 'Quality Control tab'. The session parameter file is a .csv file and should not be edited. As ';' will be used to format the .csv, the columns of the input table for which the parameters will be saved should not contain ';'.
