Jacob L. Steenwyk, Antonis Rokas
Abstract
Clear and effective figures are central to successfully communicating scientific data. Here, we present ggpubfigs, an R package with colorblind-friendly color palettes and extensions of the ggplot2 graphic system, which helps make publication-quality scientific figures from quantitative data; ggpubfigs is an open-source and user-friendly tool that is available from https://github.com/JLSteenwyk/ggpubfigs.
