The spectacular advances of the last few years resulted in the rapid analysis of the genome sequence of each individual. The biomedical world is now faced with the enormous challenges of assigning pathogenicity to each genomic variant, the...

The scientists established some guidelines for determining whether a variant is a legitimate branch of an existing lineage:

The ambition of the Molecular and Computational Biology Research School (MCB) is to create an attractive and stimulating training environment for PhD students in molecular and computational biology, both to better serve the needs for relevant...

bioconductor.org - This package estimates tumor purity, copy number, and loss of heterozygosity (LOH), and classifies single nucleotide variants (SNVs) by somatic status and clonality. PureCN is designed for targeted short read sequencing data, integrates well with...

This group interested in modeling genome dynamics in following topics: ---how genetic variation is distributed within and between individuals, ---determining how this diversity changes over evolutionary time. Hence, Cox group work at the...

www.pango.network - In the vast majority of instances it is expected that Pango lineage names and designations will conform to the following rules. These rules also act as guidelines for the decisions made by the Lineage Designation...
