Today’s overview:
Introduce Variant Calling analysis
Learn to install Nextflow
Test and run the nextflow nf-core/sarek pipeline in the HPC cluster using public data. Exercises include:
Running a test to verify the execution of the pipeline
Running the sarek variant calling pipeline with a family trio data
Running the sarek variant calling pipeline with liver samples
Overview of downstream variant calling analysis using R (hands-on session will be on Session 5)
