Francis Crick Institute & Lifebit present: London Bioinformatics Frontiers Conference

The Francis Crick Institute & Lifebit present the London Bioinformatics Frontiers Conference  Standardising & scaling your analysis using Nextflow, Containers & Cloud. An exciting two-day event exploring how to apply Nextflow, containers & cloud in your bioinformatics analyses in order to standardise & scale them. We bring together academic & industry experts in the genomics space to: Provide an in-depth look into how Nextflow is currently fast-tracking research Showcase how to standardise Nextflow-based pipelines using nf-core and containers Highlight how to scale your pipelines with Nextflow over cloud. Work towards standardising & scaling Nextflow pipelines over cloud during our Hackathon (Day 2, pre-registration required). Hackathon participants can either bring in their own pipelines they want to convert to Nextflow, or work with existing Nextflow-based pipelines they want to standardise using nf-core standards & guidelines, and scale over cloud. Agenda Day 1: Talks from the experts (open to the public, registration required) Introduction to Nextflow & how to get started Standardising Nextflow pipelines using nf-core & containers From HPC to Cloud: Scaling your pipelines with Nextflow Research & Nextflow: best practices & examples from the frontlines Day 2: Hackathon (by application only) Theme: Standardising your Nextflow pipelines with nf-core & scaling them over Cloud Open to participants who have pipelines they would like to convert to Nextflow, or participants that have existing Nextflow pipelines that they want to standardise using nf-core principles and/or scale over cloud. Note: To participate in the hackathon, please apply here! Interested in actively contributing to this exciting conference? Apply to give a talk at the conference (Day 1).
