Dowser

Dowser is part of the Immcantation analysis framework for Adaptive Immune Receptor Repertoire sequencing (AIRR-seq). Dowser provides a set of tools for performing phylogenetic analysis on B cell receptor repertoires. It supports building and visualizing trees using multiple methods, and implements statistical tests for discrete trait analysis of B cell migration, differentiation, and isotype switching.

Dowser is released under the AGPL-3 license.
