The tutorial data set includes 9 samples equally divided into 3 treatment groups. Sequencing was performed by an Illumina HiSeq (paired-end reads), but the workflow can be easily adapted for data generated by other sequencers. Each sample has 2 fastq files for a total of 18 fastq files with the combined size of 6.17 GB. 

This tutorial will use two sets of samples: human brain reference (HBR) samples and universal human reference (UHR) samples (five each). Data was generated using an Ion Torrent® sequencer (single-end chemistry), but the workflow can be easily adapted for data generated by sequencers from other manufacturers.  The project consists of 10 fastq files with the combined size of 1.4 GB.
