Can I run CeleScope on a laptop or desktop computer? 

CeleSCOPE^® can be run on a workstation, a computing cluster, or a cloud provider such as Google Cloud or Amazon Web Services (AWS) with a minimum of 32GB of memory. Typically, raw FASTQ files and mapp with ing files are tens to hundreds of GBs, therefore 500 GB of free disk space is also recommended. The best practice is to install CeleSCOPE in its own conda environment to avoid clashes other packages.
