abstract: >-
  SimurgArray takes Illumina Infinium BeadChip scans (IDAT files) to genotype calls, quality control reports,
  VCF and PLINK files, and on to copy number, loss of heterozygosity and mosaicism, pharmacogenomics, cluster file
  training and methylation control QC. Its genotype calling reproduces the vendor's GTC files byte for byte on
  public data, and every difference from reference tools is documented. Research use only.
