Suggested Prerequisites
While the workshop will be useful and informative for new Galaxy users, attendees will get the most out of the hands-on exercises if they have some basic familiarity with using Galaxy.
- The first thing you should try: Galaxy 101
- Review a set of introductory-level tutorials: Using Galaxy
- Get involved with the Galaxy Scientific user community by joining in on the conversations at Galaxy Biostars (which has now moved to help.galaxyproject.org
- Resources: Learn and Support
What is Galaxy and why could it be interesting to me?
Galaxy is a web-based, open source, data integration and analysis platform for life science research. The core pillars of the application are:
- Accessibility: enable bench scientists to create bioinformatics analyses
- Reproducibility: facilitate computational methods to be completely easily reproducible
- Transparency: enable easy sharing and publishing of research data and analyses
A sample instance of the application that is free to use is available at: usegalaxy.org
