Time to add some new interactive data viz 📈 and analysis methods 🧐 to MicrobiomeStat! Also on my todo list: improve documentation 📝 and work on that new tutorial on differential abundance testing 📊✏️ #microbiome #biostats

Regretfully, a recent update to my package introduced several bugs. The root of the issue was a conflict between `plyr` and our main dependency `dplyr`. Both have many functions with the same names but with different or even opposite uses. #Rstats #dplyr #bugalert

I missed this before, but this analysis by @Dereklowe in @science is definitely worth a read. He calls our paper (debunking the 2020 cancer microbiome @nature paper) a "cruise missile" 🤣: science.org/content/blog-pos…
