## What is the NVIDIA Clara Parabricks Collection?

Clara Parabricks is a software suite for industry-standard next generation sequencing analysis on NVIDIA GPUs, consisting of everyday bioinformatics command-line tools, such as BWA-MEM, HaplotypeCaller, and Mutect2, running at blazing speeds.

Clara Parabricks tools cover the key applications of germline, somatic and RNA analysis, and are designed to be used in high throughput environments, with up to 80x acceleration over CPU-only alternatives, and lower costs per genome.


## What is in this Collection?

* **Clara Parabricks Container** is our core software suite, enabling secondary analysis of sequencing data at blazing speeds on NVIDIA GPUs.

* **DeepVariant Model Resource** includes models optimized by the Clara Parabricks team for running DeepVariant on different GPUs, such as the A10, A30, A6000.
