HybPiper: A bioinformatic pipeline for processing target-enrichment data

With the rapid rise of next-generation sequencing technologies, disparate fields from cancer research to evolutionary biology have seen a drastic shift in the way DNA sequence data is obtained. It is now possible to sequence many genes across large numbers of species in an incredibly short period of time. And the price tag keeps getting smaller and smaller. However, the deluge of sequence data obtained using these high-throughput sequencing techniques requires a substantial amount of computation
