Abstract

VDJServer is a freely available infrastructure enabling users to leverage national and international cyberinfrastructure for managing, sharing, archiving, and analyzing immune repertoire sequence data. We are collaboratively developing standards for data sharing and software interoperability. Part of these standards are implemented in the mark-up language VDJML. These tools developed in our lab enable the creation of analysis pipelines that can be reused and shared to support scientific reproducibility.
