Hi all, I was wondering if anybody knows whether it is appropriate to analyze genomic hybridizations using limma? I assume no because the data are so different from mRNA hybs, but I am not sure. Any thoughts or comments are appreciated. Thanks, Erik

Limma is a very good tool, but for CGH data, there are more applicable tools. snapCGH combines many of them and allows one to use limma tools for loading data and normalization. Note that the approach to normalization for CGH is also somewhat different than for typical expression arrays. Sean
