Some five points to keep in mind for bioinformatics software/tools

Creators of software widely used in computational biology discuss the factors that contributed to their success

Post-doctoral Research Assistant in Genetics Camden, North London £31.1K per annum inclusive of London Weighting This is a fixed term post for 36 months. We wish to recruit a highly motivated, postdoctoral scientist to carry out a BBSRC...

The Roth Lab seeks insight into biological systems through genome- and proteome-scale experimentation and analysis. Current computational interests: Systematic analysis of genetic epistasis to identify redundant or compensatory systems and to...

With the emergence of NGS technologies, and sequencing data most of the bioinformaticians mung and wrangle around massive amounts of genomics text. There are several "standardized" file formats (FASTQ, SAM, VCF, etc.) and some tools for manipulating...

Complete, accurate replication of the genome is essential for life. All chromosomes in eukaryotic cells must be duplicated and then segregated to daughter cells to ensure genetic integrity and produce the large number of cells that make up a...
