In episode 44 of the Nextflow Channels podcast, Phil Ewels welcomes Alex Pelzer— a key figure in the Nextflow and nf-core community. Alex shares his journey from academia to the pharmaceutical industry, highlighting the critical role of regulatory frameworks in bioinformatics.

???? Key Highlights:

- The transition from working at QBiC to Boehringer Ingelheim.
- The importance of maintaining high-quality, reproducible pipelines in bioinformatics.
- Understanding regulatory requirements and their impact on clinical trials.
- How regulatory standards and open-source initiatives like @nf-core are shaping the future of bioinformatics.

Alex also discusses the formation of the @nf-core Regulatory Special Interest Group, which aims to bring together experts in the field to establish and promote best practices for ensuring pipeline quality and compliance with regulatory standards.

Looking forward to seeing many of you at the upcoming #NextflowSummit in Barcelona this October! We’ll be working with this #regulatory group during the nf-core hackathon.
