BoF: Using Galaxy in automated production setups
While Galaxy excels at being a workflow for the biologist with no major computational knowledge, recent advances in the past 3-4 years allow its use now as a system for handling production pipelines in larger bioinformatics setups (large data providers, core facilities, etc). I would like to bring together the people that see Galaxy as a reasonable alternative to more cli oriented workflow systems in the setting of production bioinformatics, that would have an interest in using Galaxy on these environments or that are already doing it. At the EBI we piloted recently tertiary analysis single cells pipelines from Galaxy being used in our production pipelines for the Single Cell Expression Atlas. We clearly had to go through some hurdles, but we think we have now something that is relatively generic. We had to add support on the client side layer to be able to allow errors and other border conditions and elements at the server side for things like automatic resubmissions on out of memory termination, among others. It would be great to share and hear what we have all learned in our experiences in this sort of setups and what other constraints we should be aware of when trying to do this.

Quality control of HTS data
Often the first step in high throughput sequencing data analysis is quality control. How reliable is the data? Does it have GC bias, or inaccuracies at the read ends, or contamination, or barcode corruption, or any number of other conditions that need to be detected and dealt with before the science begins. This workshop will provide hands-on experience performing quality control checks and how to get your data analysis-ready using Galaxy.
If you are unfamiliar with high throughput sequencing data, then this is a good introduction to HTS data.

Poster 19 A: EpiGeEC allows fast comparison of user datasets with thousands of public epigenomic datasets through Galaxy

Summary

The Epigenomic Efficient Correlator (EpiGeEC) tool, aimed at efficiently performing pairwise correlate of thousands of epigenomic datasets, has been used over the last year to pre-calculate correlation matrices that are incorporated to the IHEC Data Portal (http://epigenomesportal.ca/ihec/) (Bujjold et al.). GeEC was also proven useful for some members of IHEC (Breeze et al.) to demonstrate that even if the experiemental procedures are not necessarily consistent through all projejcts, the generated datasets are still overall highly comparable since they tend to cluster based on the assay type and sample cell type, rather than on the producing consortium. Moreover, the correlation data were used to identify potentially mislabeled or problematic datasets, as part of a quality control pipeline implemented in the IHEC Data Portal.

In addition to visualizing the pre-compued correlation scores from the Data Portal, users can now also compare their own epigenomic datasets to IHEC ones using a public version of EpiGeEC recently launched. The could be useful, for instance, to help in the characterization of datasets, or as a quality control. The various features of EpiGeEC, integrated into the Galaxy framework of the Genetics and genomics Analysis Platform (GenAP, genap.ca) project, include the support of any genomic file formats (bigWig, WIG, bedGraph, BAM), the possibility to compute correlations at different metrics (e.g. Pearson Spearman), on different subsets of regions (e.g. genes, TSS, user-defined) or the complete genome, and the clustering algorithms to display the results as an annotated heatmap and/or dendrogram. We also provide a user-friendly interface facilitating the selection of the desired datasets, and we plan to offer datasets from model organisms generated by international consortia such as modENCODE as well as data downloaded from GEO/SRA and uniformly processed. We will present the design and implementation of EpiGeEC as well as a performance comparison with other tools and some of the key results obtained so far.

Metatranscriptomics and multi-omics functional microbiome analysis
This training session has a Gitter channel where preparation instructions are posted, and for class discussion, last minute links, and more.

Training Material for this workshop:


Functional microbiome analysis which estimates the functional groups expressed by microbial community, enables researchers to look beyond taxonomic composition and correlation with the condition under study. Using microbial community RNASeq data and subsequent metatranscriptomics workflows to elucidate the functional complement of the microbiome is gaining interest in the field.

The training workshop will introduce researchers to the basic concepts and tools from the published ASaiM workflow (Batut et al, GigaScience (2018), 7 (6), http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/gigascience/giy057). Attendees will also be able to run the workflow on small test datasets. Lastly, workshop trainers will update attendees of latest developments in galaxy tools and workflows for functional microbiome and multi-omics analysis.

Schedule:
  • Introduction to Functional Microbiome and multi-omics analysis
    • Introduction to functional microbiome analysis.
    • Metagenomics, metatranscriptomics and metaproteomics methods
    • Inputs for the metatranscriptomics GTN training
  • Metatranscriptomics analysis using ASaiM workflow Part 1
    • Inputs and tools used in ASaiM workflow
    • Running the ASaiM workflow
  • Metatranscriptomics analysis using ASaiM workflow Part 2
    • Understanding the outputs from the ASaiM workflow
  • Discussion and Q&A about functional microbiome and multi-omics analysis
    • Recent advances in Galaxy workflows
    • Q&A from attendees and future directions.

Prerequisites
  • Basic knowledge and interest in microbiome analysis.
  • Introduction to Galaxy or equivalent experience
  • A wi-fi enabled laptop with a modern web browser. Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari will work best

Demo 08 B: Tool Prediction in Galaxy Workflows using Deep Learning
Galaxy workflows are scientific data processing pipelines for performing and
reproducing data analyses. The workflows are complex and difficult to create from a
suite of 2,000+ tools available in Galaxy, especially for new Galaxy users. In order to
make creating workflows easier, faster and less error-prone, a recommendation
system was developed to predict following tools. The predictive system analyses the
complete set of workflows available on Galaxy’s European server using a deep
learning approach to create a tool prediction model.

Workflows are directed acyclic graphs. To create the predictive model, sequences
(paths) of tools are extracted from these graphs and learned by a deep learning
approach ( Gated Recurrent Neural Network ). The hyperparameters of the deep
learning model are optimised using bayesian optimisation. The usage frequency of
tools is integrated in the model so that the tools which have not been used recently do
not appear in the set of possible tools. This is achieved by learning the usage of each
tool over time using a support vector regression model.

An API was developed to predict tools and visualize them using a user interface. It can
be used in the Galaxy workflow editor (It is not yet available publicly. The complete
code is located here ). The API can be also used for multiple user interface
integrations. Using the tool recommendation system, a user does not need to search
for the tools in the tool box to create a workflow. The possible tools are available in
the “recommended tools” modal popup.

This workshop continues where the Introduction to Galaxy session ends. Additional features of Galaxy will be introduced and several topics introduced in that first session will be explored in more detail. Topics covered will include:

  • Managing and backing up your account's Objects: Histories, Datasets, Workflows
  • Moving your work between Galaxy servers: Publish versus Share, Archive Creation, Export/Import
  • Datasets and Tools: Why format matters, Interpretting metadata, Troubleshooting
  • Get Data tools plus loading data: Browser, URL, Pasted Text, FTP, Data Libraries
  • Creating a Custom Genome, promoting it to a Custom Build, then DOING STUFF with it
  • Get a Galaxy Help Account and explore Galaxy's Learning and Support resources

Prerequisites
  • Introduction to Galaxy or equivalent experience
  • A wi-fi enabled laptop with a modern web browser. Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari will work best

Making your open source project awesome
This training session has a Gitter channel where preparation instructions are posted, and for class discussion, last minute links, and more.

    https://gitter.im/galaxyproject/open-source-awesome

Many journals require that scientific / research code to be open source in order to be published, but simply sharing source code alone isn’t usually enough to draw in new users and contributors. This session will discuss how researchers and coders can make their open source code repositories inclusive and welcoming to contributors.

This workshop will be led by members of the InterMine and Galaxy teams (and hopefully other equally awesome projects).

Prerequisites
  • A laptop with wifi
  • Interest in open source code

Running Galaxy on Kubernetes
Do technologies like Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm sound interesting? How about standardized, production-grade deployment of Galaxy with a single command, or no-downtime configuration changes? In this training we will take a look at the basics of Helm and Kubernetes, a Helm Chart for Galaxy, delve into how to set and change Galaxy deployment configurations, how to interface Galaxy jobs with Kubernetes, etc.

Prerequisites
  • An understanding of Galaxy deployment requirements, comfortable on the command line, ideally, an understanding of container principles.

Visualisation development in Galaxy
In this age of high-throughput analysis and big data, visualisations have become an invaluable resource for the presentation and exploration of these often high-dimensional, complex, and large datasets.

While many tools in Galaxy produce static visual outputs (graphs, trees, etc), often some more interactivity is desired to aid in the exploration of these datasets. To support this need, Galaxy offers a range of visualisation options, such as Trackster for browsing genomic data and Charts for the interactive visualisation of tabular data and other datatypes.

In this workshop participants will learn how to develop such visualisations in Galaxy, more specifically:
  • Develop a module within the Charts visualisation plugin using Javascript
  • Develop a simple visualisation plugin from scratch

Prerequisites
  • Basic understanding of Galaxy from a developer point of view
  • Some familiarity with Javascript
  • A wi-fi enabled laptop with a modern web browser. Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari will work best

Findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable tools for HIV next generation sequencing analyses have not yet become sufficiently adopted by the field. To lower adoption barriers, we have extended the popular and mature genome analytics platform Galaxy (usegalaxy.org) with a collection of HIV-centric tools. These tools (currently over 40 such tools ​​are available at galaxy.hyphy.org) enable tasks that are common to HIV-1 NGS workflows; quality control, read mapping, error correction, haplotype inference, multiple sequence alignment, phylogeny inference, molecular epidemiology, and selection analyses. Coupled with the plethora of other tools available within the Galaxy framework, this enables rapid development, deployment, sharing, and execution of complex end-to-end analytic workflows.

Mass spectrometry is the state-of-the-art technique to analyze the proteome of complex samples. This training covers protein identification and quantification based on stable isotopes. For the training dataset, HEK cells were grown in either light or heavy SILAC (Stable Isotope Labeling with amino acids in cell culture) medium, lysed and mixed together in a certain ratio. The quantification step at the end of the training will reveal in which ratio the cells were mixed.

Handling integrated biological data using Python, Jupyter, and InterMine
This training session has a Gitter channel where preparation instructions are posted, and for class discussion, last minute links, and more.

    https://gitter.im/galaxyproject/galaxy-intermine

This tutorial will guide you through loading and analyzing integrated biological data (generally genomic or proteomic data) using InterMine, either via UI or via an API in Python. Topics covered will include automatically generating code to perform queries, customising the code to meet your needs, and automated analysis of sets, e.g gene sets, including enrichment statistics. Skills gained can be re-used in any of the dozens of InterMines available, covering a broad range of organisms and dedicated purposes, from model organisms to plants, drug targets, and mitochondrial DNA.
Users will also be shown how to import and export their gene and protein lists to and from Galaxy to link Galaxy pipelines with InterMine analyses.

Prerequisites
  • Basic Python skills are advantageous but not required.
  • A laptop with wifi. Python optional as we can use Jupyter notebooks to run analyses.
