Hi everybody

I have a newbie question, sorry if I'm missing something obvious!

I'm trying to visualise expression data. I've been following the tutorial here:

The trainer refers to the Expression tab on the top row.

However when I open exactly the same data, the Expression tab is missing:

Is there some way to toggle on this data, or its been removed, or I"m missing something ?

Thanks a lot for any guidance!
Fabulous resource, I love the tutorial videos.
Rory

Hi Rory, 

Thanks for reaching out! Happy to hear you find the online tutorials useful. 
This is a sign for us to think about updating the tutorials actually because the specific functionality you're looking for has been moved to another tab since the tutorial was recorded.

You can head to the Plots tab in the Results page (so just the next tab from where you're at in your screen shot) and hit the mRNA vs Study button to quickly plot expression vs cancer study:

Please hit reply-all if you have further questions.
