    In this section, you will learn how to use Chipster software, and where to find support and more information.

    Chipster is an easy-to-use graphical analysis software for high-throughput data such as RNA-seq and single cell RNA-seq. Chipster contains over 450 analysis tools and a collection of reference genomes. Chipster runs on your web-browser, while the actual analysis happens in the powerful cloud resources at CSC. 

    You don't need to know about command line usage, R or Python to get started, and any laptop with browser and decent internet connection will do. So to get started, all you need are credentials! If you are working, studying or otherwise affiliated to a Finnish university or research institute, you can log in to Chipster with your Haka or Virtu account, or request  CSC user account. If this is not the case, you can ask for a 3-week trial account. Chipster is also available as a free virtual machine image, and user accounts to CSC's server can also be bought. More info on accounts.
