GBS analysis presents a range of computational challenges. Among them are technical challenges (e.g. wrangling large NGS data files and acquiring and administering the computational hardware necessary or accessing the campus shared resources), software engineering issues (e.g. deploying and maintaining pipelines) and research questions. Also, we continually need to train scientists to use these analysis pipelines.
Typically, research groups on campus deal with these challenges in isolation. The focus of this session will be on the question: What can we do better by working together? The desired outcome is to identify a specific project (or projects) that will be mutually beneficial and to set a project plan in motion.
