Open, reproducible data analysis
Galaxy is an open-source platform for FAIR data analysis. It gives researchers a graphical web interface for complex analysis while keeping workflows, histories, and results shareable and reproducible.
The Galaxy Community helps the ecosystem improve and supports researchers in sharing scientific discoveries.
- Tools Run domain-specific tools through the web interface.
- Workflows Connect tools into reusable analysis workflows.
- Interactive environments Use RStudio, Jupyter, and companion tools.
- Reproducibility Capture the context needed to repeat analyses.
Training
We regularly provide workshops.
But we cannot always meet capacity, so we’ve put all of our training materials online. This has become a community project with people from all over the world contributing training materials.
Topics include: variant analysis, transcriptomics, metagenomics, epigenetics, and many more!
