Abstract
The Galaxy platform is an open-source, Web-based platform for analyzing large biomedical datasets. Galaxy’s key motivations are: 1. Accessibility for everyone: scientists can use Galaxy’s Web-based interface to run complex analyses on large datasets using computing clusters or cloud computing with no programming; programmers can use Galaxy through its API, which provides programmatic access to all Galaxy functionality. 2. Reproducibility for all analyses: all analysis details, including input datasets, tool versions, and parameter settings, are saved so that an analysis can be precisely repeated by anyone with access to the analysis. 3. Web-based collaborative science: analyses can be shared with collaborators through a Web link, published to the entire Web, and included in Galaxy Pages, which are online, interactive research supplements.
