Genomics Data Analysis with Jupyter Notebooks on Azure

Jupyter notebooks are a great tool for data scientists who are working on genomics data analysis. In this repo, we demonstrate the use of Azure Notebooks for genomics data analysis via GATK, Picard, Bioconductor and Python libraries.

Here is the list of sample notebooks on this repo:

1. genomics.ipynb: Analysis from 'uBAM' to 'structured data table' analysis.
2. genomicsML.ipynb: Train Machine Learning models with Genomics + Clinical Data
3. genomics-platinum-genomes.ipynb: Accessing Illumina Platinum Genomes data from Azure Open Datasets* and to make initial data analysis.
4. genomics-reference-genomes.ipynb: Accessing reference genomes from Azure Open Datasets*
5. genomics-clinvar.ipynb: Accessing ClinVar data from Azure Open Datasets*
6. genomics-giab.ipynb: Accessing Genome in a Bottle data from Azure Open Datasets*
7. SnpEff.ipynb: Accessing SnpEff databases from Azure Open Datasets*
8. 1000 Genomes.ipynb: Accessing 1000 Genomes dataset from Azure Open Datasets*
9. GATKResourceBundle.ipynb: Accessing GATK resource bundle from Azure Open Datasets*
10. ENCODE.ipynb: Accessing ENCODE dataset from Azure Open Datasets*
11. genomics-OpenCRAVAT.ipynb: Accessing OpenCRAVAT dataset from Azure Open Datasets and deploy built-in Azure Data Science VM for OpenCRAVAT*
12. Bioconductor.ipynb: Pulling Bioconductor Docker image from Microsoft Container Registry
13. simtotable.ipynb: Simulate NGS data, use Cromwell on Azure OR Microsoft Genomics service for secondary analysis and convert the gVCF data to a structured data table.

*Technical note: Explore Azure Genomics Data Lake with Azure Storage Explorer

1. Prerequisites

Create and manage Azure Machine Learning workspaces in the Azure portal

For further details on creation of Azure ML workspace please visit this page.

Run the notebook in your workspace

This chapter uses the cloud notebook server in your workspace for an install-free and pre-configured experience. Use your own environment if you prefer to have control over your environment, packages and dependencies.

Follow along with this video or use the detailed steps below to clone and run the tutorial from your workspace.

2. Contributing

This project welcomes contributions and suggestions. Most contributions require you to agree to a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) declaring that you have the right to, and actually do, grant us the rights to use your contribution. For details, visit https://cla.opensource.microsoft.com.

When you submit a pull request, a CLA bot will automatically determine whether you need to provide a CLA and decorate the PR appropriately (e.g., status check, comment). Simply follow the instructions provided by the bot. You will only need to do this once across all repos using our CLA.
