COVID-19 immunological profiling with flow cytometry

Source code for manuscript:

Organization

  • This CSV file contains the original manually curated data
  • The metadata directory contains parsed/further curated metadata
  • Raw data (e.g. CSV, FCS and H5ad files) will be under the data directory.
  • The src directory contains source code used to analyze the data
  • A Makefile is provided to allow easy execution of task blocks.
  • Outputs from the analysis will be present in a results directory, with subfolders pertaining to each part of the analysis described below.

FCS files are hosted on Cytobank. An account is needed to download the files, which can be made programmatically with the make get_fcs command (see below). To connect with your account, simply add your credentials to a file named ~/.cytobank.auth.json containing the fields username and password:

{"username": "username", "password": "ABCD1234"}

Be sure to make the file read-only (e.g. chmod 400 ~/.cytobank.auth.json).

Requirements

  • Python 3.7+ (was run on 3.8.2)
  • Python packages as specified in the requirements file - install with make requirements or pip install -r requirements.txt.

Virtual environment

It is recommended to compartimentalize the analysis software from the system's using virtual environments, for example.

Here's how to create one with the repository and installed requirements:

git clone [email protected]:ElementoLab/covid-flowcyto.git
cd covid-flowcyto
virtualenv .venv
source activate .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
