Dear microbiome research enthusiasts and bioinformatics aficionados,
curious about smoother microbiome research? Grab your coffee and join us online!
Reproducible, easily shareable workflows are essential for bioinformatics. This holds true
for all areas of bioinformatics research, including microbiome research. To facilitate the
centralized collection of high-quality Nextflow workflows, nf-core was established with
strong involvement from the Quantitative Biology Center (QBiC) core facility. These
workflows are used, extended, and improved by a large community in a standardized manner,
making a wide range of bioinformatics analyses more accessible and easier to execute than
ever before. This presentation will introduce QBiC, discuss some challenges faced, and
present examples of solutions, with a focus on data analysis.
