Software
See Available software for a list of bioinformatics applications on our systems. You can sort on Type, where bioinformatics software is categorized as bio.
Some bioinformatics software is available as Python packages, which do not appear on the above list. See Available Python wheels for a list of Python wheels customized for our clusters.
Data
Some genome databases are available on our clusters, in /cvmfs/ref.mugqic/genomes.
Examine that directory and its subdirectories, e.g. with
[name@server ~]$ ls /cvmfs/ref.mugqic/genomes
or
[name@server ~]$ ls /cvmfs/ref.mugqic/genomes/species
Container repository
The Bioinformatics National Team maintains a repository of Apptainer (formerly Singularity) containers which provide common workflows and those workflows requiring preservation. Learn more at Biorepo Containers.
