Sibelia: A comparative genomics tool

BioStar — Sat, 22 Aug 2020 02:49:00 -0500

Sibelia: A comparative genomics tool: It assists biologists in analysing the genomic variations that correlate with pathogens, or the genomic changes that help microorganisms adapt in different environments. Sibelia will also be helpful for the evolutionary and genome rearrangement studies for multiple strains of microorganisms.

Sibelia is useful in finding: (1) shared regions, (2) regions that present in one group of genomes but not in others, (3) rearrangements that transform one genome to other genomes.

LoVis4u: Locus Visualisation tool for comparative genomics

LEGE — Tue, 17 Sep 2024 02:30:57 -0500

Description

LoVis4u is a bioinformatics tool for Loci Visualisation.

LoVis4u, a command-line tool and Python API designed for highly customizable and fast visualisation of multiple genomic loci. LoVis4u generates vector images in PDF format based on annotation data from GenBank or GFF files. It is capable of visualising entire genomes of bacteriophages as well as plasmids and user-defined regions of longer prokaryotic genomes. Additionally, LoVis4u offers optional data processing steps to identify and highlight accessory and core genes in input sequences.

OSDDlinux : Computational resources for drug discovery

Archana Malhotra — Sun, 22 Sep 2013 13:15:58 -0500

Open Source Drug Discovery (OSDD), a mission to provide affordable drugs for poors, is in the process of creating an in silico plateform for designing, discovering and simulating drugs. OSDD have initiate number of projects to support in silico drug discovery, including OSDDlinux and computational resources for drug discovery (CRDD).

The main purpose of OSDDLinux is to provide an in silico platform for computer-aided drug design. This is a collection and compilation of large number of software and web services which will be directly or indirectly useful for researches working in the field of drug design/discovery. Overall objective of OSDDlinux is to promote open source in drug discovery, crowdsourcing and network based collobrations. Following are major features of OSDDlinux ...

What is Health Informatics?

Wed, 12 Mar 2014 14:50:46 -0500

What is health informatics? In the words of Dr. Noni MacDonald...: "Most of the way I've seen it defined is the intersection with health information, computer science and health care and health systems but I think that's very linear and very narrow in what it is. For me what Health Informatics is really is about is how do we take all of these tools and have everybody able to manage health, health care systems and their own personal health in a better way. That's whether you're the mayor of the city, whether you're the Dean of Medicine, whether you're the CEO of one of the biggest health organization or you're John Q Public who's just cut their finger. That's what it's all about." Filmed at Dalhousie University during summer 2010. Edited by Mohammed Al-Bakri during summer 2011.
