Bioinformatics in Thailand !

Shruti Paniwala — Wed, 28 Apr 2021 02:04:56 -0500

Our international PhD and master programs are designed for students who desire focused training in the elements of biology, computer science, and information technology needed for a successful career in the exciting new discipline of Bioinformatics & Systems Biology. Students in our program will receive comprehensive training in omics analysis, database design and management, software engineering and programming (including web-based development), simulation techniques and modeling, and data integration. Each student will apply their skills to a practical project, where they will design and implement a solution to a real-world problem under the guidance of an experienced mentor in industry or academia.

Bioinformatics tools for genome assembly !

BioStar — Mon, 24 Jul 2023 07:04:26 -0500

There are numerous genome assembly tools available, each with its strengths and weaknesses. Here is a list of some widely used genome assembly tools as of my last update in September 2021:

SPAdes: An assembler specifically designed for single-cell and multi-cell bacterial genomes, as well as small eukaryotic genomes.
ABySS: A parallelized assembler for large genomes that uses de Bruijn graphs.
Velvet: Another de Bruijn graph-based assembler optimized for short-read sequencing data.
SOAPdenovo: A de Bruijn graph-based assembler designed for short reads, widely used for assembling large and complex genomes.
MaSuRCA: A hybrid assembler that combines data from multiple sequencing technologies, such as Illumina and PacBio.
Canu: A long-read assembler optimized for PacBio and Oxford Nanopore sequencing data.
Flye: A long-read assembler suitable for bacterial and small eukaryotic genomes.
SMARTdenovo: An assembler designed for long reads, particularly suited for PacBio data.
SPAdes Long Read (SPAdesLR): An extension of SPAdes for long-read data, such as those from PacBio or Nanopore.
Minia: An assembler optimized for low memory consumption, suitable for small and medium-sized genomes.
Unicycler: A hybrid assembler that combines short and long reads for circular bacterial genome assembly.
wtdbg2: A de Bruijn graph assembler for long reads, efficient for very large genomes.
Shasta: A long-read assembler that uses the Overlap-Layout-Consensus approach, suitable for PacBio and Nanopore data.
Sparc: An assembler designed to handle noisy long reads from Nanopore sequencing.
CANA: An assembler for metagenomic data, particularly for complex and diverse microbial communities.
Ra Assembler: A metagenome assembler for long reads, designed for highly complex metagenomic samples.

Please note that the field of bioinformatics is constantly evolving, and new assembly tools may have emerged since my last update. Additionally, the performance of these tools can vary depending on the characteristics of the sequencing data and the genome being assembled. When selecting an assembly tool, consider the specific requirements of your project, the available data types, and the computational resources at your disposal. Always refer to the respective tool's documentation and publications for the most up-to-date information and recommendations.

BioKit: a set of tools dedicated to bioinformatics, data visualisation

Neel — Tue, 18 Jun 2024 02:04:39 -0500

BioKit is a set of tools dedicated to bioinformatics, data visualisation (biokit.viz), access to online biological data (e.g. UniProt, NCBI thanks to bioservices). It also contains more advanced tools related to data analysis (e.g., biokit.stats). Since R is quite common in bioinformatics, we also provide a convenient module to run R inside your Python scripts or shell (:mod:biokit.rtools module).

Bioinformatics Codes Search

Jitendra Narayan — Thu, 15 Aug 2013 11:08:52 -0500

I bet, this website will be your best friend in near future. This helps us to explore the existing open source codes and learn from it.

You can find some useful open source bioinformatics codes for your analysis work. You can use the left bar options to filtere out or narrow down your search result. This webpage can be an useful resource for a beginners bioinformatician as it contain several bioinformatics basics script that are commonly used by biological programmers and biologist.

Stand on the slumped, dandruff-covered shoulders of millions of computer nerds. _/\_

Enjoy the code and research work.

Programming language to build synthetic DNA

Jit — Mon, 30 Sep 2013 16:37:24 -0500

A team led by Georg Seelig (http://homes.cs.washington.edu/~seelig/index.html) at University of Washington has developed a programming language for chemistry that it hopes will streamline efforts to design a network that can guide the behavior of chemical-reaction mixtures in the same way that embedded electronic controllers guide cars, robots and other devices. In medicine, such networks could serve as “smart” drug deliverers or disease detectors at the cellular level.

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.
