These resources have been contributed and “vetted” by the community of cyberinfrastructure professionals (researchers, research computing facilitators, research software engineers and HPC system administrators) that are participating in programs such as this one, that are supported by the ConnectCI community management platform. Additional Knowledge Base Resources are always welcome!
Bioinformatics Toolbox provides algorithms and apps for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), microarray analysis, mass spectrometry, and gene ontology. Using toolbox functions, you can read genomic and proteomic data from standard file formats such as SAM, FASTA, CEL, and CDF, as well as from online databases such as the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus and GenBank.
Iterative Programming takes place when you can explore your code and play with your objects and functions without needing to save, recompile, or leave your development environment. This has traditionally been achieved with a REPL or an interactive shell. The magic of Jupyter Notebooks is that the interactive shell is saved as a persistant document, so you don't have to flip back and forth between your code files and the shell in order to program iteratively.
There are several editors and IDE's that are intended for notebook development, but JupyterLab is a natural choice because it is free and open source and most closely related to the Jupyter Notebooks/iPython projects. The chief motivation of this repository is to enable an IDE-like development environment through the use of extensions. There are also expositional notebooks to show off the usefulness of these features.
Samtools is a suite of programs for interacting with high-throughput sequencing data, especially in the SAM/BAM format. It offers various utilities for processing, analyzing, and managing sequence data generated from next-generation sequencing (NGS) experiments. Samtools is widely used in bioinformatics and genomics research for tasks such as read alignment, variant calling, and data manipulation.
A tutorial entitled "How the Little Jupyter Notebook Became a Web App: Managing Increasing Complexity with nbdev" presented at SciPy 2023 in Austin, TX. This tutorial is hosted in a series of Jupyter Notebooks which can be accessed in the click of a button using Binder. See the README for more information.
An ongoing collection of RSE training material, workshops, and resources. We are compiling this list as a starting point for future activities. We are especially seeking material that goes beyond basic research computing competency (e.g. what The Carpentries does so well) and is general enough to span multiple domains. Specific tools and technologies used only in one domain, or applicable to only one subset of computing (i.e. HPC) are typically too narrowly focused. When in doubt, submit it to be included or reach out and we’d be happy to discuss.
This repository contains information about Jupyter Widgets and how they can be used to develop interactive workflows, data dashboards, and web applications that can be run on HPC systems and science gateways. Easy to build web applications are not only useful for scientists. They can also be used by software engineers and system admins who want to quickly create tools tools for file management and more!
The Biopython Tutorial and Cookbook website is a dedicated online resource for users in the field of computational biology and bioinformatics. It provides a collection of tutorials and practical examples focused on using the Biopython library.
The website offers a series of tutorials that cover various aspects of Biopython, catering to users with different levels of expertise. It also includes code snippets and examples, and common solutions to common challenges in computational biology.
