Bioinformatics Resources for the AMD Southeast Region

This is the place where you can find all updated bioinformatics resources for the Southeast Region.

Southeast Region members:

  • Alabama
  • Georgia (Workforce Development (WFD) Lead)
  • Florida (Bioinformatics Regional Resource (BRR) Lead and Workforce Development (WFD) Lead)
  • Louisiana
  • Mississippi
  • Puerto Rico
  • Tennessee
  • U.S. Virgin Islands

HiPerGator Resources

All Southeast region members have free access to shared computational resources on the high-performance computing (HPC) cluster at the University of Florida, known as "HiPerGator". Each state has their own storage allocation and has access to 150 CPUs to run analyses. Additionally, each user has access to a local, private instance of Galaxy, maintained by UF's Research Computing staff. We currently are not providing additional trainings related to Galaxy. For and training or guidance requests please email [email protected]

Getting Started

To request a HiPerGator account, please follow these instructions.

If this is your first time using HiPerGator (or any HPC), I highly recommend watching these short training videos.

Please see the UFRC Help and Documentation wiki page for detailed information about HiPerGator and submitting jobs.

All materials related to HiPerGator can be found here.

Additional Resources

SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing

Please visit https://github.com/CDCgov/SARS-CoV-2_Sequencing to find up-to-date sequencing protocols, bioinformatics pipelines/methods, and additional information related to data submission and standards.

For more information on (or to join) the SPHERES (SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing for Public Health Emergency Response, Epidemiology, and Surveillance) national consortium, please visit https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/covid-data/spheres.html.

Nextstrain

Please visit https://nextstrain.org/community/SESchmedes/sarscov2-southeast-usa/southeast to view the Nextstrain build focused on the AMD Southeast Region. This build will be updated biweekly. You can drag and drop a .csv file with your own metadata to view additional information pertaining to your samples. The added metadata does not leave the browser.

Additionally, SPHERES maintains state-level builds for all 50 states at https://nextstrain.org/groups/spheres. Click on your state link below to see the latest genomic epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 in your state, and track variants of concern.
