Abstract

SeqAhead is a COST Action created by a group of researchers involved in the development of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data-analysis software and pipelines. The primary objective of SeqAhead is to develop a coordinated action plan to help the scientific community to handle the flood of NGS data in an efficient and coherent manner, using state-of-the-art bioinformatics. Establishment of a strong European network of NGS, data-analysis and informatics centres will facilitate and stimulate the exchange of data, protocols, software, experiences and ideas.
