Even computational biologists find it unexpectedly difficult to reproduce results from others or optimize their own strategies in an end-to-end workflow. We introduce Germline Mutation Scoring Tool fOr Next-generation sEquencing data (GeMSTONE), a cloud-based variant prioritization tool with high-level customization and a comprehensive collection of bioinformatics tools and data libraries (http://gemstone.yulab.org/). GeMSTONE generates and readily accepts a sharable “recipe” file for each run to either replicate existing results or analyze new data with identical parameters. %U https://www.biorxiv.org/content/biorxiv/early/2016/05/06/052001.full.pdf
