The recount3
R/Bioconductor package is part of the recount3 project and is the
latest iteration of the ReCount family of projects that provide access
to uniformly-processed RNA sequencing datasets. The main documentation
website for all the recount3-related projects is available at
recount.bio.
Please check that website for more information about how this
R/Bioconductor package and other tools are related to each other.
For more information about recount3 check the vignettes through Bioconductor or at the documentation website.
Get the latest stable R release from
CRAN. Then install
recount3 from
Bioconductor using the following code:
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) {
install.packages("BiocManager")
}
BiocManager::install("recount3")Below is the citation output from using citation('recount3') in R.
Please run this yourself to check for any updates on how to cite
recount3.
print(citation("recount3"), bibtex = TRUE)

Please note that the derfinderPlot project is released with a Contributor Code of Conduct. By contributing to this project, you agree to abide by its terms.
- Continuous code testing is possible thanks to GitHub actions through usethis, remotes, sysreqs and rcmdcheck customized to use Bioconductor’s docker containers and BiocCheck.
- Code coverage assessment is possible thanks to codecov and covr.
- The documentation website is automatically updated thanks to pkgdown.
- The code is styled automatically thanks to styler.
- The documentation is formatted thanks to devtools and roxygen2.
For more details, check the dev directory.
To clarify the relationship between the R/Bioconductor packages and the
phases of ReCount please check the table below:
| Year | Phase | Main references | R/Bioconductor |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2011 | ReCount |
DOI: 10.1186/1471-2105-12-449 | none |
| 2017 | recount2 |
DOI: 10.1038/nbt.3838 10.12688/f1000research.12223.1 | recount |

The ReCount family involves the following teams:
- Ben Langmead’s lab at JHU Computer Science
- Kasper Daniel Hansen’s lab at JHBSPH Biostatistics Department
- Leonardo Collado-Torres and Andrew E. Jaffe from LIBD
- Abhinav Nellore’s lab at OHSU
- Jeff Leek’s lab at JHBSPH Biostatistics Deparment
- Data hosted by the Registry of Open Data on AWS and SciServer from IDIES at JHU through a load balancer called duffel.
