What it does

Route tasks to specialist skills

Best for

When analyzing bulk RNA-seq from raw reads through differential expression and pathway enrichment with reproducible, quality-gated pipelines.

Inputs
  • · FASTQ files
  • · Sample metadata
  • · Reference genome/annotation
Outputs
  • · Gene-level counts matrix
  • · QC reports
  • · Differential expression table
Requires
  • · STAR
  • · FastQC
  • · Salmon
Preconditions
  • · FASTQ files on disk
  • · Reference genome + annotation available
  • · FastQC/STAR/Salmon installed or Nextflow + Docker
Failure modes
  • · Strandedness mismatch yields reverse-complement counts
  • · Reference genome version mismatch causes poor alignment
  • · Adapter content not trimmed inflates downstream counts
Trust signals
  • · Routes through nf-core/rnaseq (peer-reviewed)
