🚨 Hot off the press 🚨 The results from our 2024 State of Workflow Community Survey are in! We've gathered insights from 600+ #Nextflow users (a 21% increase from last year!) about the state of workflow management for scientific data analysis. This revealed a notable shift toward public cloud adoption among biotech firms and the increasing importance of #OpenScience in research. 💡 Explore the key findings from the survey in our latest blog: https://lnkd.in/dCdVPhEE

We believe in a future where science is open to all. Where community is the driving force of discovery. With no limits on knowledge, technology can take humanity to new frontiers. We are here to advance science for everyone through software. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ Evan Floden, Paolo Di Tommaso

Big news in Nextflow! The latest 24.04 release is packed with genuinely groundbreaking features and enhancements that transform your pipelines. From job arrays to new resource limits and Seqera Containers, new "topic channels" and a workflow output definition (adios publishDir!). This release has it all. Let's jump into the details! Workflow Output Definition - A new syntax for defining workflow outputs provides more flexibility and a cleaner DSL2-style approach. This should simplify how you publish any channel, not just process outputs, and remove the need for publishDir. Topic Channels & Eval Outputs - Collect metadata from various sources and capture standard output of shell commands easily. These features cut down boilerplate code (<<-END_VERSIONS > versions.yml in nf-core modules) and simplify complex workflows. Seqera Containers - This new flagship community service allows anyone to request and cache images built with packages from Conda and PyPI. Easily accessible directly from Nextflow, simplifying the workflow setup. Hosted on AWS, this replaces and significantly improves on biocontainers. Resource Limits - Define global resource limits for tasks to ensure your workflows run efficiently even in constrained environments. No more job max_cpus code in the config or endless queue waits! Job Arrays - Now supported in Nextflow! Submits multiple independent jobs with a single call, reducing the load on schedulers and speeding up execution times. Perfect for high-throughput workflows with 1,000+ tasks. Works on both cloud and HPC! Colored Logs & AWS Fargate Support- Enhanced log readability with colored outputs and expanded AWS Fargate support for faster run startup. Learn more about all these features and more in the detailed blog post. It even has a table of contents, so you know it is decent! https://lnkd.in/gcggh_Gy And tune into the new and improved Channels podcast, Channels Episode 41, to hear Phil and Ben give an opinioned take on these changes. https://lnkd.in/g_Wx2M7t

At Seqera, we are on a mission to advance science for everyone through software and we cannot forget that science is developed by everyone, for everyone. On this #PrideDay 🏳️🌈, we want to celebrate the groundbreaking contributions of LGBTQ+ scientists that have driven progress in science and technology. 🔬 Dr. Ben Barres, who uncovered the crucial role of neuroglia in the nervous system 🔌 Dr. Lynn Conway, a pioneer in microelectronics and VLSI design 🏥 Dr. Sara Josephine Baker, whose innovations in public health continue to save lives. To all LGBTQ+ scientists out there, we thank you for the work you have done and are doing to advance science for everyone. Only by truly embracing diversity, we can drive innovation and create a better future for everyone. 🌈

We just had a #SeqeraSessions in Basel 🇨🇭 and it was great seeing so many of our community — a fantastic blend of learning, collaboration, and networking. 🚀 The event started with a #Nextflow training, where attendees from Boehringer Ingelheim, Novigenix SA, Roche, and other companies learned how to make the most of Nextflow for their workflow management needs. 🎤 In the afternoon, we had Alexander Peltzer, Hamid Azimi, Cameron MacPherson and Evan Floden share their insights about AI and open science, before a lively networking session, building valuable connections. Interested in leveling up your Nextflow skills? The next #SeqeraSessions is coming up in Cambridge 🇬🇧 in September. Stay tuned as registrations will open soon!
