  <dc:title>Robust and User-Friendly Analysis of Growth and Fluorescence
Curves</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package QurvE version 1.1.2</dc:title>
  <dc:description>High-throughput analysis of growth curves and fluorescence
    data using three methods: linear regression, growth model fitting, and
    smooth spline fit. Analysis of dose-response relationships via
    smoothing splines or dose-response models. Complete data analysis
    workflows can be executed in a single step via user-friendly wrapper
    functions. The results of these workflows are summarized in detailed
    reports as well as intuitively navigable 'R' data containers. A 'shiny'
    application provides access to all features without
    requiring any programming knowledge. The package is described in further
    detail in Wirth et al. (2023) &lt;doi:10.1038/s41596-023-00850-7&gt;.</dc:description>
