Using the Open-Source Galaxy Computational Workbench for Cancer Data Analyses
December 2, 2025 | 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM
Virtual
Are you looking for computational tools to analyze and visualize cancer research data?
Join us for a training session on Galaxy, an open-source and browser-based computational platform. During the session, NCI grantee, Dr. Jeremy Goecks, will demonstrate several analyses and answer your questions such as:
- How do I navigate more than 10,000 analysis and visualization tools for a wide variety of biomedical data (e.g., genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, imaging, metabolomics)?
- What new AI tools are available to use in Galaxy?
- Where can I find more than 400 hands-on tutorials for Galaxy?
- How can I use Galaxy for my specific analysis?
Dr. Goecks emphasizes that regardless of your level of informatics expertise or the computational power of your laptop, you can use this platform to find reproducible, scalable, and accessible biomedical data science tools for your research.
