Bioinformatics programs and services available at GWDG

The following is a complete list of bioinformatics programs and services currently available at GWDG. If you need a program that is not yet installed on our servers, contact us and we will install it if possible.

Most programs are Linux based command line tools available on our bioinformatics server gwdu100 (dialog mode) or HPC cluster in batch mode. In some cases (e.g. HPC) your GWDG account has to be activated for use of the systems, please request access by email. If you need help with Linux basics or the batch system, we will give you a short introduction.
