Canadian Integrated Rapid Infectious Disease Analysis project (IRIDA)

Simon Gladman reports from a recent visit to the Canadian Integrated Rapid Infectious Disease Analysis project (IRIDA) where they are building an open source, end-to-end platform for infectious disease genomics epidemiology. Simon worked with the team to incorporate the PHAC’s IRIDA system into the GVL and test out it’s functionality. A working example.

This is a normal Microbial GVL with IRIDA installed over the top. The IRIDA system is located at: http://115.146.94.168/irida. Those wishing to make an account can contact Simon. He will be demonstrating this feature in an upcoming Friday seminar at VLSCI.

There is an ansible script that will install IRIDA on any GVL located at http://github.com/gvlproject/gvl.ansible.irida. To do: install script and link to the GVL dashboard and to investigate the pathway for Nullarbor incorporation.
