Summary With increased generation of high‐resolution sequence‐based ‘Omics' data, detecting statistically significant effects at different genomic locations and scales has become key to addressing several scientific questions. IWTomics is an R/Bioconductor package (integrated in Galaxy) that, exploiting sophisticated Functional Data Analysis techniques (i.e. statistical techniques that deal with the analysis of curves), allows users to pre‐process, visualize and test these data at multiple locations and scales. The package provides a friendly, flexible and complete workflow that can be employed in many genomic and epigenomic applications. Availability and implementation IWTomics is freely available at the Bioconductor website (http://bioconductor.org/packages/IWTomics) and on the main Galaxy instance (https://usegalaxy.org/).
