# sechm **Pierre-Luc Germain, 08.04.2021** *D-HEST Institute for Neurosciences, ETH Zürich & Laboratory of Statistical Bioinformatics, University Zürich* *** The *sechm* package is essentially a convenient wrapper around the *[ComplexHeatmap](https://jokergoo.github.io/ComplexHeatmap-reference/book/)* engine, facilitating the creation of heatmaps from *[SummarizedExperiment](https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.10/SummarizedExperiment)* objects. This was formerly part of the [SEtools](https://github.com/plger/SEtools) package. Install with: ```r BiocManager::install("plger/sechm") ``` Example usage: ```r sechm(SE, features=myGenes, top_annotation="Time", do.scale=TRUE, gaps_at="Condition", mark=c("Gm14288","Fos","Arc")) ``` <!-- --> See the package's [vignette](http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/sechm/inst/doc/sechm.html) for more information!
