System for determining a copy number of a genomic sequence

A system for determining a copy number of a genomic sequence in a biological sample utilizing an interactive graphical user interface (GUI), the system comprising:

• a thermal cycler instrument configured to amplify a plurality of samples and generate a data set for a copy number assay for the plurality of samples;
• and
• one or more processors in communication with the thermal cycler instrument and configured to:
• determine a ΔCt, a copy number, and a confidence value for each sample in the plurality of samples based on the data set;
• and
• generate, based on the ΔCt, the copy number, and the confidence value for each sample in the plurality of samples, results for the plurality of samples;
• and
• generate, for display on an electronic display communicatively coupled to the one or more processors, an interactive graphical user interface comprising:
• a user input area for receiving user input associated with defining a user-selected set of bins for grouping copy number values;
• a first display area including a first probability density scatter plot configured to display results for the plurality of samples grouped according to a first set of bins;
• a second display area including a second probability density scatter plot configured to display results for the plurality of samples grouped according to the user-selected set of bins, wherein the user-selected set of bins is different than the first set of bins;
• and
• graphical indications of confidence values associated with a sample's copy number being within a particular bin of the first set of bins and graphical indications of confidence values associated with a sample's copy number being within a particular bin of the user selected set of bins.
