This webinar is designed to introduce beginners and non-bioinformaticians to the DRAGEN command line interface. DRAGEN is a powerful bioinformatics tool for secondary analysis of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) data. By understanding the command line, you can gain more flexibility and control over your analyses.

In this webinar, you will learn:

• Basic DRAGEN command structure
• Common command line options
• How to run different DRAGEN pipelines (e.g., variant calling, RNA-Seq, amplicon analysis)
• Tips for troubleshooting and debugging DRAGEN commands
• Best practices for using the DRAGEN command line.

This webinar is ideal for:

• Researchers and scientists who are new to bioinformatics or DRAGEN
• Individuals who want to gain more control over their NGS data analysis
• Anyone interested in learning how to use the DRAGEN command line effectively
