Hello,

statistical methods for assessing significance of differences in
expression assume, correct me if I'm wrong, independence of the tests.
Does anyone have at hand any papers on the performance -- in terms of
type I error -- of methods such as limma / eBayes? I'm sure this issue
has been investigated in depth.

Kind regards,

January
