AB  - High-throughput sequencing has revolutionized biology by enhancing our ability to perform genome-wide studies. However, due to lack of bioinformatics expertise, technologies are still beyond the capabilities of many laboratories. Herein, we present Wardrobe server, which allows users to store, visualize and analyze epigenomics and transcriptomics data using a biologist-friendly GUI without the need for programming expertise. Predefined pipelines allow users to download data from core facilities or public databases, visualize data on a genome browser, calculate RPKMs and identify islands. Advanced capabilities include differential gene expression and binding analysis, and creation of average tag density profiles and heatmaps. Wardrobe is available at https://code.google.com/pZgenome-tools/.
