WHAT’S NEW

  • Muse somatic caller: This tool has been added to the Parabricks toolkit and has a 10x acceleration compared to its original implementation. Muse is the fifth somatic caller in Parabricks. Muse utilizes a novel approach to mutation calling based on the F81 Markov substitution model for molecular evolution, which models the evolution of the reference allele to the allelic composition of the matched tumor and normal tissue at each genomic locus.
