#47 Reproducible pipelines and NGLess with Luis Pedro Coelho

<p><a href="http://ngless.embl.de/">NGLess</a> is a programming language specifically targeted at next generation sequencing (NGS) data processing. In this episode we chat with its main developer, <a href="http://luispedro.org/">Luis Pedro Coelho</a>, about the benefits of domain-specific languages, pros and cons of Haskell in bioinformatics, reproducibility, and of course NGLess itself.</p> <p>Links:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://github.com/ngless-toolkit/ngless">NGLess on GitHub</a></li> <li><a href="https://microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40168-019-0684-8#citeas">NG-meta-profiler: fast processing of metagenomes using NGLess, a domain-specific language</a> (Luis Pedro Coelho, Renato Alves, Paulo Monteiro, Jaime Huerta-Cepas, Ana Teresa Freitas, Peer Bork)</li> </ul>
