Getting started with Basepair

Basepair provides a user-friendly suite of bioinformatics pipelines that allow for detailed analysis of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) data. Industry-standard, publicly available tools are streamlined to process raw FASTQ data from a variety of genomic assays including bulk and single-cell RNA-seq, WGS, WES/panel, ATAC-seq, CUT&RUN, CUT&TAG, ChIP-seq, metagenomics and more!

Basepair organizes your samples and analyses into projects, allowing you to create and edit projects as needed:

Opening a project makes it your current active project—this is where any new samples and analyses will be created.

Here, the “RNA-seq” project has been opened and summary statistics on both the samples and analyses are provided from the project dashboard:

The menu bar at the top of the page allows you to quickly and easily browse your samples, analyses, and projects using the drop-downs. When you first log in to your account, we automatically create your first project for you, called “Project 1”—feel free to change the name using the Edit button on the right side:

Once you have set up your project, the next step is to add samples to it.
