nf-core/rnafusion
RNA-seq analysis pipeline for detection of gene-fusions
1.0.2
). The latest
stable release is
3.0.2
.
Introduction
The pipeline is built using Nextflow, a workflow tool to run tasks across multiple compute infrastructures in a very portable manner. It comes with docker containers making installation trivial and results highly reproducible.
