ABSTRACT:
Aspects of the present invention describe a method and apparatus for automating quality control for gene expression data. A computer based device receives gene expression data associated with a spectral species and genetic sample in each well of a plate. Gene expression data may be received from a sequence detection instrument performing one or more gene expression related operations for each of the wells of the plate. The computer based device identifies gene expression data determined to have anomalous characteristics according to a set of one or more quality control metrics and may conditionally flag one or more wells of the plate affected by the anomalous characteristics. Filters can then be selectively applied to temporarily or permanently remove the flagged data from subsequent gene expression studies.
