abstract: '`orthogene` is an R package for easy mapping of orthologous genes across
  hundreds of species. It pulls up-to-date gene ortholog mappings across **700+ organisms**.
  It also provides various utility functions to aggregate/expand common objects (e.g.
  data.frames, gene expression matrices, lists) using **1:1**, **many:1**, **1:many**
  or **many:many** gene mappings, both within- and between-species.'
