Variant Calling

This workflow calls variants in a sequence sample by aligning it to a reference genome, identifying variants and annotating them. It reimplements a publication by Koboldt et al. 2013.

A detailed description can be found on the Cuneiform website. This cookbook installs all necessary tools, downloads all necessary data, sets up Cuneiform, and places the workflow in a predetermined location. The cookbook can be run on any system in a virtual machine.
