	<description><![CDATA[<p>The Charm City Circleator--or Circleator for short--is a Perl-based visualization tool developed at the&nbsp;<a href="http://igs.umaryland.edu/">Institute for Genome Sciences</a>&nbsp;in the University of Maryland's School of Medicine. Circleator produces circular plots of genome-associated data, like this one:</p>

	<title><![CDATA[REAPR: a universal tool for genome assembly evaluation]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>REAPR is a tool that evaluates the accuracy of a genome assembly using mapped paired end reads, without the use of a reference genome for comparison. It can be used in any stage of an assembly pipeline to automatically break incorrect scaffolds and flag other errors in an assembly for manual inspection. It reports mis-assemblies and other warnings, and produces a new broken assembly based on the error calls.</p>
<p>The software requires as input an assembly in FASTA format and paired reads mapped to the assembly in a BAM file. Mapping information such as the fragment coverage and insert size distribution is analysed to locate mis-assemblies. REAPR works best using mapped read pairs from a large insert library (at least 1000bp). Additionally, if a short insert Illumina library is also available, REAPR can combine this with the large insert library in order to score each base of the assembly.</p>

<p>Evolutionary Dynamics and Population Genetics</p>

<p>Natural selection and other evolutionary forces lead to particular patterns of evolutionary dynamics, and they leave characteristic signatures on the genetic variation within populations.  We use a combination of theory and experiments to study the dynamics and population genetics of natural selection in asexual populations such as microbes and viruses. </p>

<p>We use both theory and experiments to study evolutionary dynamics and population genetics, particularly in situations where natural selection is pervasive.</p>
