+# nf-core/configs: CCGA Med Cluster Configuration
+
+Deployment and testing of nf-core pipelines at the CCGA Med cluster is on-going.
+
+To use, run the pipeline with `-profile ccga_med`. This will download and launch the [`ccga_med.config`](../conf/ccga_med.config) which has been pre-configured with a setup suitable for the CCGA cluster. Using this profile, a docker image containing all of the required software will be downloaded, and converted to a Singularity image before execution of the pipeline.
+
+Before running the pipeline you will need to load Nextflow and Singularity using the environment module system on the cluster. You can do this by issuing the commands below:
+
+```bash
+## Load Nextflow and Singularity environment modules
+module purge
+module load nextflow
+module load singularity
+```
+
+>NB: Access to the CCGA Med cluster is restricted to IKMB/CCGA employees. Please talk to Marc Hoeppner to get access (@marchoeppner).
