Galaxy is an open-source platform for FAIR data analysis that enables users to:

  • Use tools from various domains (that can be plugged into workflows) through its graphical web interface.
  • Run code in interactive environments (RStudio, Jupyter...) along with other tools or workflows.
  • Manage data by sharing and publishing results, workflows, and visualizations.
  • Ensure reproducibility by capturing the necessary information to repeat and understand data analyses.

The Galaxy Community is actively involved in helping the ecosystem improve and sharing scientific discoveries.

Evaluation of the current usage and future needs of Galaxy for microbial data analysis - We Need Your Help!

The microGalaxy community of practice would like to learn more about use-cases where Galaxy was beneficial, and also the barriers that prevent researchers from using Galaxy. The aim is to collectively find solutions to improve user experience and reduce barriers. To this end, we are launching a survey to reach out to, and learn from, the microbial research community.

Effortlessly navigate your Galaxy history with enhanced search options

Data searchability in the Galaxy History panel has been taken to new levels with the advanced search options that allow users to not only find items with more ease, but also find relations within items in their history.

Enjoy a much faster user interface

Following up on our modernization efforts, we now introduce a single top-router written in Vue, which brings all our Vue components together in a seamless user experience, dramatically reducing the number of required page reloads when navigating the Galaxy user interface.

Galaxy Mentor Network: Reset

We launched the Galaxy Mentor Network one year ago with the idea to onboard new members in the community. Now, one year later, we realize that we failed. We still believe in the power that the Galaxy Mentor Network, and, in that spirit, we would like to relaunch the Galaxy Mentor Network with a new matching process.

Exporting structured data like RO-Crate or BioComputeObjects

Galaxy has a very powerful and extensible exporting framework that now can export RO-Crate and BioComputeObjects
