The HPC is changing

We will soon be switching to a new High Performance Cluster, called Double Helix. This will mean that some of the commands you use to connect to the HPC and call modules will change. We will inform you by email when you are switching over, allowing you to make the necessary changes to your scripts. Please check our HPC changeover notes for more details on what will change.

Workflows, scripts and containers for data analysis¶

This section contains example scripts and code chunks as well as entire analysis workflows to get you up-and-running with analysis in the Research Environment.

Most of these scripts and workflows are present in the Research Environment under the folder: /gel_data_resources/example_scripts. Check out the Getting workflow support page if you run into any difficulties. Many of these scripts and workflows require you to build a cohort as a startpoint, you can learn more about this in our tutorial

Feel free to get in contact with us if you would like further assistance in writing your own scripts or if you have a script or workflow of your own that you would like to share with the research community!

Workflows¶

Association testing¶

Aggregate Variant Testing (AVT) workflow performs rare variant association analysis
GWAS pipeline performs genome-wide common variant association analysis

Variant screening¶

Small Variant workflow extracts and annotates variants within a query gene(s)
Structural Variant workflow extracts CNVs and SVs within a query regions defined by gene(s) or coordinates

Scripts¶

Containers¶

Container repositories¶

See the documentation on Using containers within the Research Environment.

Public genome analysis software in the Research Environment
