High-throughput experiments often produce ranked gene outputs, with forward genetic screening being a notable example. While there are various tools for analyzing individual datasets, those that perform comparative and meta-analytical examination of such ranked gene lists remain scarce. Here, we introduce Gene Rank Meta Analyzer (GeneRaMeN), an R Shiny tool utilizing rank statistics to facilitate the identification of consensus, unique, and correlated genes across multiple hit lists.
