Community Nextflow Foundational Training

Community Nextflow Foundational Training

Join us from March 5-6 for the Community Nextflow Foundational Training event!

The training is entirely virtual and free and will cover the fundamentals of using Nextflow. While the training will offer something for all skill levels it will be especially useful for those who are new to Nextflow and the nf-core community, or if you are thinking about joining the nf-core Hackathon for the first time.

Prior knowledge of Nextflow is not required but will make it easier to understand new concepts.
