Project description and aims
FHMRI Bioinformatics aims to support Flinders research groups with bioinformatics analyses, ranging from preprocessing large datasets with established pipelines through to hands-on analyses requiring custom software and tool development. We use where possible established nf-core pipelines or published and well-maintained pipelines preferably built using a workflow manager. We develop tools mostly with Snakemake to support custom applications for research groups. Aims and analyses are therefore quite varied, but impact is considerable as not all research groups can support a full time bioinformatician so having access to bioinformatics support when needed is greatly beneficial.
How is ABLeS supporting this work?
This work is supported through the Production Bioinformatics scheme provided by ABLeS.
Expected outputs enabled by participation in ABLeS
FHMRI Bioinformatics supports many research groups. We always strive for open access Q1 journals. All our code is made available open source (typically on GitHub) and where applicable published on appropriate repositories (PyPI, Bioconda, workflowhub, etc).
