Available documentation

The documentation for CLC Cancer Research Workbench can be found here: http://clccancer.com/software/#downloads.

Two manuals are available for CLC Cancer Research Workbench:

• The CLC Cancer Research Workbench application based manual. This relatively short manual gives a basic introduction to CLC Cancer Research Workbench, which includes a section on how to get started, as well as describing how to use the different ready-to-use workflows for analysis of different types of sequencing data.
• The CLC Cancer Research Workbench reference manual. This comprehensive manual explains the features and functionalities of the CLC Cancer Research Workbench in detail.

If you would like to use a CLC Server, there are three additional manuals that are relevant:

• The CLC Cancer Research Server Plugin manual. This short manual gives a description of how to get started using the CLC Cancer Research Server Plugin. We recommend that this manual is used in combination with the "CLC Genomics Server administrator manual" and the "CLC Genomics Server end user manual" if you are not already familiar with CLC Genomics Server.
• The CLC Genomics Server administrator manual. This manual is for server administrators and describes how to install and manage CLC Genomics Server.
• CLC Genomics Server end user manual. This manual is for the users of the CLC Server. In this manual you can find a description of how to use a CLC Server from a CLC Workbench.
