 # HPC Nextflow / nf-core Pipeline Setup
 
-This repository provides instructions for setting up and running Nextflow-based nf-core pipelines on a High-Performance Computing (HPC) system. The setup process has been tailored for UCLA's Hoffman2 cluster. However, SGE clusters will have similar installation steps.
+This repository provides instructions for setting up and running Nextflow-based nf-core pipelines on a High-Performance Computing (HPC) system. The setup process has been tailored for UCLA's Hoffman2 cluster. However, SGE clusters will follow similar installation steps. Alternatively, use the bash setup file for a more straightforward setup.
