Updated
MultiQC has released version 1.25, introducing a highly anticipated feature that allows grouping of samples in the General Statistics module. This update addresses the issue of empty spaces caused by FastQC _1 and _2 samples, significantly improving the interpretation of sequencing QC results. The feature was developed by Vlad Savelyev, following an initial proposal by Phil Ewels in 2017. The update is expected to save users hours, if not days, in analyzing sequencing data. Users can try it out by setting `table_sample_merge`.
