+     "Linnorm is an R package for the analysis of RNA-seq, scRNA-seq, ChIP-seq
+count data or any large scale count data.  It transforms such datasets for
+parametric tests.  In addition to the transformtion function (@code{Linnorm}),
+the following pipelines are implemented:
+
+@enumerate
+@item Library size/batch effect normalization (@code{Linnorm.Norm})
+@item Cell subpopluation analysis and visualization using t-SNE or PCA K-means
+  clustering or hierarchical clustering (@code{Linnorm.tSNE},
+  @code{Linnorm.PCA}, @code{Linnorm.HClust})
+@item Differential expression analysis or differential peak detection using
+  limma (@code{Linnorm.limma})
+@item Highly variable gene discovery and visualization (@code{Linnorm.HVar})
+@item Gene correlation network analysis and visualization (@code{Linnorm.Cor})
+@item Stable gene selection for scRNA-seq data; for users without or who do
+  not want to rely on spike-in genes (@code{Linnorm.SGenes})
+@item Data imputation (@code{Linnorm.DataImput}).
+@end enumerate
+
+Linnorm can work with raw count, CPM, RPKM, FPKM and TPM.  Additionally, the
+@code{RnaXSim} function is included for simulating RNA-seq data for the
+evaluation of DEG analysis methods.")
