Creates and plots 2D and 3D hive plots. Hive plots are a unique method of displaying networks of many types in which node properties are mapped to axes using meaningful properties rather than being arbitrarily positioned.  The hive plot concept was invented by Martin Krzywinski at the Genome Science Center (www.hiveplot.net/).  Keywords: networks, food webs, linnet, systems biology, bioinformatics.

An interactive 'Shiny' dashboard for visualizing and exploring key metrics related to HIV/AIDS, including prevalence, incidence, mortality, and treatment coverage. The dashboard is designed to work with a dataset containing specific columns with standardized names. These columns must be present in the input data for the app to function properly: year: Numeric year of the data (e.g. 2010, 2021); sex: Gender classification (e.g. Male, Female); age_group: Age bracket (e.g. 15–24, 25–34); hiv_prevalence: Estimated HIV prevalence percentage; hiv_incidence: Number of new HIV cases per year; aids_deaths: Total AIDS-related deaths; plhiv: Estimated number of people living with HIV; art_coverage: Percentage receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART); testing_coverage: HIV testing services coverage; causes: Description of likely HIV transmission cause (e.g. unprotected sex, drug use). The dataset structure must strictly follow this column naming convention for the dashboard to render correctly.

Provides functions to implement a hierarchical approach which is designed to perform joint analysis of summary statistics using the framework of Mendelian Randomization or transcriptome analysis.

This is a collection of functions for converting coordinates between WGS84UTM, WGS84GEO, HK80UTM, HK80GEO and HK1980GRID Coordinate Systems used in Hong Kong SAR, based on the algorithms described in Explanatory Notes on Geodetic Datums in Hong Kong by Survey and Mapping Office Lands Department, Hong Kong Government (1995).
