On these pages you'll find training materials for the Genomics England Research Environment, and helpful information on understanding the data you will have access to. If there is something we've missed, doesn't make sense, or is just plain wrong then please add a comment at the appropriate place and we'll look into it.

titleThe important points
  1. The Research Environment is preloaded with the data you are entitled to, but there are some hoops to jump through when you first get access.
  2. Although all of GeCIP see all of the same data, some of it is protected by a Publication Moratorium.
  3. There is no internet access inside the Research Environment; however, some websites are available (called 'whitelisted websites').
  4. If your program requires access to the internet to run, it will not work unless you apply to get the service whitelisted.
  5. You can't copy out of the Research Environment, but you can paste in - use the paste command from your browser's menu (not the paste command in the virtual desktop or Ctrl+v).
  6. If you want to bring data or information in, or take your results out, you have to go through the Airlock.
  7. There are commandline tools available, we are calling them 'modules', you need to load them up as and when you need them.
  8. If you've got lots of data to analyse, it'll happen far quicker if you submit it to the cluster.
  9. When your initial thoughts and analyses start to coalesce into a research project, you need to register it on the Using the Research Registry.
  10. You cannot install your own tools and applications - you have to submit an Airlock requesta request to the Genomics England Service Desk.
