7 This training will walk you through the development of a
8 best-practices CWL workflow. At the conclusion of this training, you
9 should have a grasp of the essential components of a workflow, and
10 have a basis for learning more.
12 These lessons are based on [Introduction to RNA-seq using
13 high-performance computing
14 (HPC)](https://github.com/hbctraining/Intro-to-rnaseq-hpc-O2) lessons
15 developed by members of the teaching team at the Harvard Chan
16 Bioinformatics Core (HBC). The original training, which includes
17 additional lectures about the biology of RNA-seq, can be found at that
22 > This training assumes some basic familiarity with editing text files,
23 > the Unix command line, and Unix shell scripts.
25 > Specific knowledge of the biology of RNA-seq is *not* a prerequisite
26 > for these lessons. Although orignally developed to solve big data
27 > problems in genomics, CWL is not domain specific to bioinformatics,
28 > and is used in a number of other fields including medical imaging,
29 > astronomy, geospatial, and machine learning. We hope that you will
30 > find this training useful regardless of your area of research.
