Online-Seminar „Scalable and Reproducible Workflows with Snakemake & Nextflow“ by ORDS-MV on March 28, 2025

ORDS-MV (Open Reproducible Data Science and Statistics network in MV) invites interested researchers to a seminar on workflow management in data science, featuring contributions on Snakemake and Nextflow. 

The online seminar will take place on March 28, 2025 at 1:00 p.m. via Zoom

Snakemake – Reproducible and Scalable Workflow Management
Snakemake is a Python-based workflow manager that helps you to formalize your data analysis in a reproducible, scalable, and portable way, including deployment on high-performance computing (HPC) facilities. In this session, Dr. Christiane Hassenrück, bioinformatician at the Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research, Warnemünde (IOW) will introduce:

  • The basics of the snakemake logic for defining workflows consisting of several interdependent analysis steps (rules)
  • Software integration via Conda
  • Workflow deployment on an HPC cluster

Nextflow – Flexible and Scalable Workflows for Science
Nextflow is a powerful workflow framework designed for scalability and flexibility, making it ideal for complex bioinformatics analyses. Dr. Fabian Billenkamp, a bioinformatician at the Institute for Animal Nutrition, Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut (Braunschweig), will provide an easy-to-follow introduction, covering:

  • Nextflow’s core concepts and unique features
  • Practical workflow examples from microbiome and transcriptome research
