  species = "Homo sapiens",
  library = NULL,
  subcategory = NULL,
  gene.sets = NULL
)

Arguments

species	The scientific name of the species of interest in order to get correct gene nomenclature
library	Individual collection(s) of gene sets, e.g. c("H", "C5"). See msigdbrfor all MSigDB collections.
subcategory	MSigDB sub-collection abbreviation, such as CGP or BP.
gene.sets	Select gene sets or pathways, using specific names, example: pathways = c("HALLMARK_TNFA_SIGNALING_VIA_NFKB"). Will only be honored if library is set, too.
