Features

You can apply many different capabilities of St. Jude Cloud to your research, such as:

  • Explore the raw genomics data we currently offer. You can browse by diagnosis, publication, or curated dataset while applying a number of different filters. For more information, see our data request guide.
  • Run your tools on our data by requesting data and packaging your tools in a secure cloud environment. See this guide for an example.
  • Run our in house analysis workflows on your data by moving your data to the cloud and selecting a workflow to run. See this guide for an example.
  • Explore St. Jude datasets through interactive visualizations that we have packaged for the community. For example, visit PeCan to visually investigate pediatric cancer mutation data.
  • Create manuscript quality figures with your data to use in publications or to host on your website with ProteinPaint or GenomePaint. See the ProteinPaint documentation and GenomePaint documentation for help.
note

Please note that while it is free to receive and store our data in St. Jude Cloud, there are compute and storage fees associated with working in the cloud, as well as egress fees for downloading data.
