	<description><![CDATA[<p>TGS technologies have been used to produce highly accurate de novo assemblies of hundreds of microbial genomes and highly contiguous reconstructions of many dozens of plant and animal genomes, enabling new insights into evolution and sequence diversity. They have also been applied to resequencing analyses, to create detailed maps of structural variations in many species. Also, these new technologies have been used to fill in many of the gaps in the human reference genome.</p><p>In this report, we compare and evaluate several genome assembly software based on TSG technology. The experimentation has been performed on 4 reference genomes and the results evaluated with the QUAST software. The 11 software that have been evaluated are: Celera Assembler , Falcon , Miniasm, Newbler , SGA Assembler, Smartdenovo, Abruijn, Ra, DBG2OLC, Spades and Cerulean. The first 8 software use only long reads, while the 3 last software can merge long and short reads</p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>The genome sequencing revolution is approaching a landmark figure of 1000 completely sequenced genomes. Coupled with fast-declining, per-base sequencing costs, this influx of DNA sequence data has encouraged laboratory scientists to engage large datasets in comparative sequence analyses for making evolutionary, functional and translational inferences. However, the majority of the scientists at the forefront of experimental research are not bioinformaticians, so a gap exists between the user-friendly software needed and the scripting/programming infrastructure often employed for the analysis of large numbers of genes, long genomic segments and groups of sequences. We see an urgent need for the expansion of the fundamental paradigms under which biologist-friendly software tools are designed and developed to fulfill the needs of biologists to analyze large datasets by using sophisticated computational methods. We argue that the design principles need to be sensitive to the reality that comparatively small teams of biologists have historically developed some of the most popular biological software packages in molecular evolutionary analysis. Furthermore, biological intuitiveness and investigator empowerment need to take precedence over the current supposition that biologists should re-tool and become programmers when analyzing genome scale datasets.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/23/14/1713.full" rel="nofollow">http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/23/14/1713.full</a></p>]]></description>

<p>IIIT-Allahabad has several Openings for the Faculty positions at the Assistant Professor level.</p>

<p>It is a regular tenure-track faculty positions for 3-5 years in teaching and research. A regular faculty is expected to engage heavily in research and teaching. The eligibility criteria for regular faculty positions are similar as in IITs. For an Assistant Professor position, a candidate must have a PhD (in IT/Computer Science &amp;/or Engineering/Electrical, Electronics &amp;/or Communication Engineering/etc; for interdisciplinary areas the PhD may be in an appropriate field), plus three years experience. However, for PhDs from a well known University/Institute (e.g. IITs/IISc/TIFR/ISI in India or well known research universities across the world), and a good research/academic record, the 3 years experience requirement may be waived.</p>

<p>The pay scale for faculty is same as in IITs. Other benefits include initiation research grant, travel support, book grant, professional society membership, etc., and personal benefits such as medical/LTC, on campus subsidized family housing with excellent modern infrastructural facilities.</p>

<p>Areas of Interest</p>

<p>IIIT-Allahabad aims to build strong research groups in important and emerging areas in CS/IT/ECE as well as in emerging interdisciplinary areas, and applications are invited in all these areas. Some of the areas of special interest, besides strengthening the existing research areas, are : Software Engineering, Theoretical Computer Science, Cyber Physical Systems, Robotics, Network science, Digital Media, Computational neuroscience, Machine learning, Healthcare informatics, Computational Biology, Communications networks (both at hardware and protocol levels), Circuits (including VLSI, analog, low power, etc), Energy systems and technologies, Biomedical electronics and systems, Computer Architecture, signal/image processing, Embedded and control systems.</p>

<p>Application Process</p>

<p>Interested candidates can apply by sending their detailed CV with list of publications clearly mentioning Journal names and citation index with three references through email entitled “Faculty positions at IIIT Allahabad” to faculty.applications@iiita.ac.in. Do not send your applications in any other email addresses. Applications will be considered regularly, hence there is no deadline for applying.</p>

<p>Important Clarifications on Eligibility</p>

<p>A PhD in CS/IT (or other disciplines, as announced) is the minimum expected requirement for an Assistant Professor.</p>

Cases are now being reported from Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Nepal, France, Australia and even as far as the US.&nbsp;On Jan 10 2020, while news of the first fatality was barely trickling in, the <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/MN908947">29,903 letters</a> constituting the viral genome from an affected individual in Wuhan had already been elucidated (even though a few corrections were made subsequently). All the viral genome sequences from affected individuals are very very close to each other. Several are identical and none has more than 5 differences (99.983% similarity). This strongly suggests that transmission into humans came from a single pointed source and happened very recently, between Sep-Dec 2019.</p><p>Check out the detail at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/MN908947</p>]]></description>
