Description

The curatedTCGAData package provides a convenient and user-friendly interface for The Cancer Genome Atlas data from the Firehose GDAC Pipeline. Please note that _most_ of the data from the GDAC Firehose pipeline uses the 'hg19' reference genome (except for a few cancers; refer to https://confluence.broadinstitute.org/display/GDAC/FAQ).

It is highly recommended to use the 'TCGAutils' companion package. It provides convenience functions for manipulating curatedTCGAData objects. See package for more details (http://bioconductor.org/packages/TCGAutils).
