RNA-Seq Analysis Data Collection Template
Before setting up and running the tucca-rna-seq workflow, it's essential
to collect and organize all the necessary information about your experiment.
This comprehensive template ensures you have everything needed for a thorough
and effective RNA-seq analysis.
Having complete information upfront helps:
- Avoid workflow failures due to missing data
- Ensure proper sample organization
- Set appropriate analysis parameters
- Plan for storage and computational requirements
- Facilitate collaboration and reproducibility
Collecting comprehensive metadata from the start not only ensures a smooth analysis but also greatly simplifies the process of submitting your data to public archives like NCBI's Sequence Read Archive (SRA). Adhering to open science principles by sharing your data makes your research more impactful and reproducible.
For an excellent guide on this process, we recommend the following paper:
