You can also add your favourite NGS educational material, or workshop tutorial by commenting on this...
www.nature.com - Second generation sequencing has revolutionized genomic studies. However, most genomes contain repeated DNA elements that are longer than the read lengths achievable with typical sequencers, so the genomic order of several generated contigs cannot...
Sandelin group have a deep interest in most biology, but focus on gene regulation and the many areas that are connected with this, including transcriptomics, epigenetics and technological and informatics aspects.
The group is both computational...
Live Webinar on RNA-Seq Data Analysis
Abstract: Strand NGS supports an extensive workflow for the analysis and visualization of RNA-Seq data. The workflow includes Transcriptome / Genome alignment, Differential expression analysis with Statistical...
Agricultural research in modern scientific arena is being represented by proper integration among various research fields of biological, chemical and physical sciences, because this field encompasses many more complexities of biology in nature. In...
fragment size: the Illumina WGS protocol generates paired-end reads from both ends of longer fragments. The lengths of these fragments are assumed to be sampled from a normal distribution. Therefore, in the absence of structural variants,...
A post-doctoral fellowship is available in the research groups of Nick Goldman (EBI) and John Welch (Genetics Department, Cambridge University) under the EMBL-EBI / Cambridge Computational Biomedical Postdoctoral Fellowship scheme.
The project is...
github.com - MeDuSa (Multi-Draft based Scaffolder), an algorithm for genome scaffolding. MeDuSa exploits information obtained from a set of (draft or closed) genomes from related organisms to determine the correct order and orientation of the contigs. MeDuSa...
