The Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics at Duke University Medical Center is seeking a Postdoctoral Associate for a one year appointment to work on several high-dimensional research projects. The specific goals of the project are to...
The Brent Lab is developing and applying computational methods for mapping gene regulation networks, modeling them quantitatively, and engineering new behaviors into them.
To remove all line ends (\n) from a Unix text file:
sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n//g' filename.txt > newfilename_oneline.txt
To get average for a column of numbers (here the second column $2):
awk '{ sum += $2; n++ } END { if (n > 0) print sum / n;...
The interaction between proteins and other molecules is fundamental to all biological functions. In this section we include tools that can assist in prediction of interaction sites on protein surface and tools for predicting the structure of the...

Awk is a programming language that is specifically designed for quickly manipulating space delimited data. Although you can achieve all its functionality with Perl, awk is simpler in many practical cases.
Why awk? You can replace a pipeline...
