  • List of universities offering Bachelor, Master or PhD bioinformatics degree in Malaysia

    Bioinformatics is a newly emerging interdisciplinary research area, which may be defined as the ―interface between biological and computational sciences. Most of the Bioinformatics work that is done can be described as analyzing biological data, although a growing number of projects deal with the...

  • Bioinformatics PhD / PostDoc / Job Rejection

    While your PhD or PostDoc application, it is more common that you got rejected by many professors. Don't disappoint reply it calmly. In grad school, I shared a house with three Bioinformatics PhD students. One, when he applied to a particular professor, received a letter that said, essential...

  • Five key traits to seek out in potential bioinformatics candidates !!!

    Genomics and proteomics data are being collected in bulk, but mostly, traditional biologist don’t know what to do with it. Perhaps this is the reason why (not only this!!! ) computational biologist/bioinformatics scientists are hot commodities in the research world. In fact, there are huge...

  • Computer simulation of genetic mechanism !!

    Computer simulation is the discipline of designing a model of an actual or theoretical physical/biological system, executing the model on a digital computer, and analyzing the execution output. Simulation embodies the principle of ``learning by doing'' --- to learn about the system we must first ...

  • How to install Perl modules on Mac OS X in easy steps !!

    Today at work, I learned how to install Perl modules using CPAN. It’s a lot easier than I thought. You see, for the past couple of years, I’ve been a bit frustrated because OS X does not come with a whole lot of Perl modules pre-installed, and for all I googled, I couldn’t...

  • Structural variation: the hidden genomic treasure

    Genome re-sequencing projects have revealed substantial amounts of genetic variation between individuals extending beyond single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and short indels. Structural Variations (SVs) and Copy Number Variations (CNVs) are a major source of genomic variation. However, compar...

  • Software and Tools to detect structure variation with long reads !!

    Uncovering the connection between genetics and heritable diseases requires an approach that looks at all the variant bases and types in a genome. While a PacBio de novo assembly resolves the most novel SV variants. 8-10X PacBio coverage of single genomes or trios reveals triple the SVs ...

  • List of GOI approved peer reviewed bioinformatics and computational biology journals

    Unfortunately, we now live in a world where the integrity of peer-reviewed journals is being threatened by the rise of the academic version of fake news – something many call “predatory publishing".  Mostly in academic publishing world, "predatory open access publishing" is an ex...
