github.com - HALC, a high throughput algorithm for long read error correction. HALC aligns the long reads to short read contigs from the same species with a relatively low identity requirement so that a long read region can be aligned to at least one contig...

github.com - Filtering on quality and/or read length, and optional trimming after passing filters.Reads from stdin, writes to stdout. Intended to be used: directly after fastq extraction prior to mapping in a stream between extraction and...

ArrayGen is offering an Internship Program for Post graduate Bioinformatics / Biotechnology / MBA / MCA students and professionals. ArrayGen Technologies provide an excellent opportunity to gain research experience and explore if a scientific career...

github.com - new de novo assembler called BASE. It enhances the classic seed-extension approach by indexing the reads efficiently to generate adaptive seeds that have high probability to appear uniquely in the genome. Such seeds form the basis for BASE...
