Project Details
Cancer Computer is developing a free access Galaxy server platform, which will be the largest free resource in the world by computing power. This will allow cancer researchers an open, web-based platform for accessible, reproducible, and transparent computational biomedical research.
We have received donated hardware for this project, but need funding to help pay for a graduate student/bioinformatician, to work with Johns Hopkins and Oregon State to develop scrpits, so that researchers can run the most common cancer workflows on Cancer Computer hardware.
In addition, your donations, will help power this equipment. Like all of the other work we do, Galaxy, is computationally and storage heavy, and requires our servers to be running at 100%, 24/7.
Galaxy is extremely easy to use, and can assist researchers from not having to spend months setting up hardware and software, and can get them started almost right away. Users without programming experience can easily specify parameters and run tools and workflows. Galaxy captures information so that any user can repeat and understand a complete computational analysis. Users share and publish analyses via the web and create Pages, interactive, web-based documents that describe a complete analysis.
