  • Ravi Pandya: Accelerating Genomics in the Cloud

    Thursday Mar 16, 2017 3:30pm – 4:30pm, E2-599 Abstract: I will describe an optimized version of the Broad Institute best practices BWA/GATK pipeline that we have developed to run in the Microsoft Azure cloud as an easy-to-use web service. This pipeline gives similar accuracy to standard BWA/GATK, but can process a 30x whole-genome FASTQ into…
