Metacoder heat-tree wins PLoS t-shirt competition

Heat-trees made with metacoder featured at ISMB 🚀

Zach Foster won the t-shirt design competition conducted over twitter by PLoS Computational Biology with his differential heat-tree design. Heat-trees show differential abundance of OTUs across two pairwise comparisons in a hierarchical, tree-based format. The heat-tree concept was first introduced in our paper on the R package metacoder paper and the winning design for the t-shirt is inspired by figure 5.

This t-shirt was given away at the ISMB 2018 conference in Chicago.

We are now all proudly wearing his design:
