Nextflow pipeline for the analysis of malaria amplicon sequencing data

AmpRecon is a bioinformatics pipeline that aligns short-read sequencing data to specific amplicon panels, performs variant-calling, and produces genetic report cards. It was designed to work with amplicon-sequencing data from Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax.
