Large bioinformatics analysis workflows are fragile ecosystems of software tools, scripts and dependencies and can present a challenge to the reproducibility of data analyses. One solution is the use of the workflow management systems which can be seamlessly executed across different computing environments (laptop/desktop to High Performance Computing).
The two-part workshop will implement a common analytical pipeline in both Nextflow and Snakemake, exposing participants to the core concepts of importance to both workflow managers, while also providing a means to compare and contrast the two.
This workshop is intended for researchers who already use bioinformatics workflows in their research, but who do not yet have knowledge of Nextflow or Snakemake. To participate you must be familiar with the Linux command line and have experience with at least one scripting language.
The workshop is free but places are strictly limited. Participants must attend both days: 25 and 26 Sept, 12-4pm AEST.
