<p id="p-2">Summary: GenomeScope is an open-source web tool to rapidly estimate the overall characteristics of a genome, including genome size, heterozygosity rate, and repeat content from unprocessed short reads. These features are essential for studying genome evolution, and help to choose parameters for downstream analysis. We demonstrate its accuracy on 324 simulated and 16 real datasets with a wide range in genome sizes, heterozygosity levels, and error rates. Availability and Implementation: http://qb.cshl.edu/genomescope/, https://github.com/schatzlab/genomescope.git</p>

	<title><![CDATA[RECORD]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Background. Next-generation sequencing technologies are now producing multiple times the genome size in total reads from a single experiment. This is enough information to reconstruct at least some of the differences between the individual genome studied in the experiment and the reference genome of the species. However, in most typical protocols, this information is disregarded and the reference genome is used. Results. We provide a new approach that allows researchers to reconstruct genomes very closely related to the reference genome (e.g., mutants of the same species) directly from the reads used in the experiment. Our approach applies de novo assembly software to experimental reads and so-called pseudoreads and uses the resulting contigs to generate a modified reference sequence. In this way, it can very quickly, and at no additional sequencing cost, generate new, modified reference sequence that is closer to the actual sequenced genome and has a full coverage. In this paper, we describe our approach and test its implementation called RECORD. We evaluate RECORD on both simulated and real data. We made our software publicly available on sourceforge. Conclusion. Our tests show that on closely related sequences RECORD outperforms more general assisted-assembly software.</p>

	<title><![CDATA[ScaffMatch]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>caffMatch is a novel scaffolding tool based on Maximum-Weight Matching able to produce high-quality scaffolds from NGS data (reads and contigs). The tool is written in Python 2.7. It also includes a bash script wrapper that calls aligner in case one needs to first map reads to contigs (instead of providing .sam files).</p>
<p>The arguments accepted by ScaffMatch are:</p>
<p>&nbsp; -w) Working directory -- this is the directory where ScaffMatch files are stored. These are .sam files produced after mapping reads to contigs and the resulting scaffolds file `scaffolds.fa` fasta file;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -c) Contig fasta file;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -m) Command line argument with no options. It is used when .sam files are used instead of reads .fastq files. Do not use this option if you provide reads files;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -1) (Comma separated list of) either .fastq or .sam file(s) corresponding to the first read of the read pair;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -2) (Comma separated list of) either .fastq or .sam file(s) corresponding to the second read of the read pair;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -i) (Comma separated list of) insert size(s) of the library(-ies);</p>
<p>&nbsp; -s) (Comma separated list of) library(-ies) standard deviation(s) of insert size(s);</p>
<p>&nbsp; -t) Bundle threshold. Pairs of contigs supported by number of read pairs less than the value of this argument are discarded. Optional argument, by default it is equal to 5;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -g) Matching heuristics: use `max_weight` for Maximum Weight Matching heuristics with the Insertion step, use `backbone` for Maximum Weight Matching heuristics without the Insertion step, use `greedy` for Greedy Matching heuristics;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -l) Log file - where to store the logs. Optional argument. By default, stdout is used.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://alan.cs.gsu.edu/NGS/?q=content/scaffmatch" rel="nofollow">http://alan.cs.gsu.edu/NGS/?q=content/scaffmatch</a></p>]]></description>

What does this mean for patients? We can now identify predispositions to disease, predict how we metabolize drugs, and figure out what kinds of treatments we may respond to, and even determine when a drug may give us an adverse reaction. All medical specialties benefit from human genome intelligence -- oncology saw the first impacts -- but advances are now being seen in cardiology, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatric diseases, gastroenterology, rheumatology, immunology and other areas. This video covers the areas that genetic medicine is impacting and where the future of genomic medicine is heading.]]></description>
