Human height follows a normal distribution

Distribution of the number of reads that align to each gene

# reads

RNA Seq data can be modeled using a

negative binomial distribution

Significance High

Genes with significant count differences between

normal and intermediate samples

CDON counts are significantly smaller in intermediate than in normal
