Once your research group is ready to make a larger investment and hire a bioinformatician to gain a competitive edge, there are several key traits to seek out in potential candidates. The best bioinformatician are:-
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - The Ensembl comparative genomics resources are one such reference set that facilitates comprehensive and reproducible analysis of chordate genome data. Ensembl computes pairwise and multiple whole-genome alignments from which large-scale synteny,...

The Genome 10K project aims to assemble a genomic zoo—a collection of DNA sequences representing the genomes of 10,000 vertebrate species, approximately one for every vertebrate genus. The trajectory of cost reduction...
compbio.cs.toronto.edu - PRISM is a software for split read (reads which span across a structrual variant -- SV ) mapping and SV calling from the mapping result. PRISM is able to detect small insertions and abitrary size deletions, inversions and tandom duplications with...
easyfig.sourceforge.net - Easyfig has moved to github, for newer releases of Easyfig please visit our new webpage - https://mjsull.github.io/Easyfig. Easyfig is a Python application for creating linear comparison figures of multiple genomic loci with an easy-to-use...
bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org - QUAST evaluates genome assemblies. For metagenomes, please see MetaQUAST project.It can works both with and without a given reference genome.The tool accepts multiple assemblies, thus is suitable for comparison.

bioinf.spbau.ru - SPAdes – St. Petersburg genome assembler – is intended for both standard isolates and single-cell MDA bacteria assemblies. This manual will help you to install and run SPAdes. SPAdes version 3.7.1 was released under GPLv2 on March 8,...
https://gatb.inria.fr/ - The Genome Analysis Toolbox with de-Bruijn graph (GATB) provides a set of highly efficient algorithms to analyse NGS data sets. These methods enable the analysis of data sets of any size on multi-core desktop computers, including very huge...
www.broadinstitute.org - The Genome Assembly Evaluation Metrics and Reporting (GAEMR) package is an assembly analysis framework composed a number of integrated modules. These modules can be executed as a single program to generate a complete...
gage.cbcb.umd.edu - GAGE is an evaluation of the very latest large-scale genome assembly algorithms. We have organized this "bake-off" as an attempt to produce a realistic assessment of genome assembly software in a rapidly changing field of next-generation sequencing....
