abstract = {The three-dimensional organization of the genome plays
a critical role in regulating gene expression by shaping the
spatial and temporal interactions between regulatory elements.
High-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C)
technologies, along with immunoprecipitation- or chromatin
accessibility-based chromatin architecture mapping methods,
enable the measurement of chromatin dynamics at both bulk and
single-cell levels. However, effectively exploring and comparing
chromatin structures remains challenging, particularly when
integrating multiple layers of genomic annotation or comparing
structural dynamics across conditions. While several tools
support interactive 3D genome visualization, few provide a
flexible, R-integrated framework that supports custom
annotations, side-by-side comparison of multiple stages or
conditions, and deployment in Shiny applications. To address this
need, we have developed geomeTriD, an R/Bioconductor package that
enables interactive visualization of chromatin structures using
three.js, supports multi-layer annotation, allows parallel
comparison of two chromatin states, and is compatible with
Shiny-based analysis workflows. As multi-omic and spatial genomic
datasets grow in complexity, GeomeTriD will facilitate the
reconstruction and comparison of 3D genome structures across
conditions, linking chromatin architecture to gene regulation,
epigenetic states, and cell-state transitions. geomeTriD is
