MORPHIC TF Perturbation Portal

Streamlit app for exploring transcription factor perturbation screen data from the MORPHIC consortium.

Quick Start

./run.sh

This validates data, extracts any needed files, and launches the server on port 8501.

To use a different port:

./run.sh 8701

Manual Setup

If you need to set things up step by step:

# 1. Activate environment
source morphic_website_env/bin/activate

# 2. Validate data symlink
python scripts/validate_data_sources.py

# 3. Extract timecourse data (first time only)
python scripts/extract_timecourse_expression.py

# 4. Launch server
streamlit run app.py --server.headless true --server.port 8501

Data

Data is loaded via the data symlink pointing to ../morphic_pub_refactor. If validation fails, check that the symlink exists and points to the correct location.

Troubleshooting

• Port in use: Change port with ./run.sh 8701 or kill existing process with fuser -k 8501/tcp
• Import errors referencing system Python: Make sure the venv is activated or use ./morphic_website_env/bin/streamlit directly
