    problems installing package goseq

    I have been having trouble installing the package goseq. I followed the instructions, but got the following message:

    > source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
    > biocLite("goseq",dependencies=TRUE)
    Using R version 2.10.1, biocinstall version 2.5.11.
    Installing Bioconductor version 2.5 packages:
    [1] "goseq"
    Please wait...

    Warning message:
    In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) :
    package ‘goseq’ is not available

    Any suggestions? I am not particularly familiar with the language R, so I don't know how to dig deeper to solve the issue.

    Thanks!

    Hi PFS,

    goseq requires a newer version of R than the one you are using. If you update to the latest version and try again everything should work.

    Cheers,

    Matt

      Could you please help me to find a resolution.

      Thanks.

        Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
        by SEQadmin2


        I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.


        Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

        From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
        by SEQadmin2


        Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


        The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
