As part of the work of BeYond COVID, we have developed a new integration between the MINERVA Platform’s COVID-19 Disease Map and Galaxy! Datasets created within Galaxy can now be seamlessly visualized in the MINERVA Platform, allowing you to explore your data in the context of the COVID-19 Disease Map.
This work generated a number of brand new WorkflowHub Workflows, which can now be launched more easily than ever in the GTN:
Hands On: Importing and Launching a WorkflowHub.eu Workflow
Click on galaxy-workflows-activityWorkflows in the Galaxy activity bar (on the left side of the screen, or in the top menu bar of older Galaxy instances). You will see a list of all your workflows
Click on galaxy-uploadImport at the top-right of the screen
On the new page, select the GA4GH servers tab, and configure the GA4GH Tool Registry Server (TRS) Workflow Search interface as follows:
Select the version you would like to galaxy-upload import
The workflow will be imported to your list of workflows. Note that it will also carry a little blue-white shield icon next to its name, which indicates that this is an original workflow version imported from a TRS server. If you ever modify the workflow with Galaxy’s workflow editor, it will lose this indicator.
Below is a short video showing the entire uncomplicated procedure:

And a few new GTN features like the ability to embed a workflow visualisation directly into a tutorial.

The Galaxy Training Network (GTN) had the pleasure of joining the “Talking about Education Across Communities at Helmholtz” (TEACH V) community conference, which took place in Berlin from September 29 to October 1.
Thanks to a collaborative effort between the teams at Galaxy Training Network (GTN), WorkflowHub, and Australian BioCommons, GTN workflows are now registered automatically with WorkflowHub. The existing set of workflows can be viewed here: GTN on WorkflowHub. For every new tutorial that is added to the GTN, any workflows that it contains will now also be pushed to WorkflowHub.

Gel Electrophoresis is a staple of molecular biology, providing a way to separate DNA, RNA, or proteins by size and charge. While gels are usually interpreted visually, the ability to quantify band intensities offers much richer insights—allowing researchers to estimate product yields, verify PCR amplification, or assess protein purity.
