If the learning operation time is enough, and it is based on the analysis process written by others, it is estimated that it can be completed in a few days. For example, we take the pure life letter analysis of cell death as an example:

1, data downloading and sorting.

2. Difference analysis.

3. Tumor classification and survival analysis.

4. Establish a model, calculate the risk score, and analyze the risk score in combination with clinical factors.

5. Do difference analysis according to the risk score, and do GO and KEGG enrichment analysis with the obtained differential genes.

6. Conduct immune correlation analysis.

After doing the above analysis, you can write an article about the reference model. How long will it take to complete the above analysis? If it is based on the operation flow written by others, someone will guide and solve the code error in time.

People with zero foundation can complete these operations in three days; If you operate skillfully, it is estimated that you can complete these analyses in less than one morning and publish articles in a week or so.

If you are zero-based and you don't operate on the basis of other people's good operation processes, it may take several months to install software or download data, and it is estimated that it will take about one year to complete all the analysis processes. Generally, a research hotspot will rot in the street after a year or two, and it will be very difficult for people behind to make it.
