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.
