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 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...
sourceforge.net - Opera (Optimal Paired-End Read Assembler) is a sequence assembly program (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_assembly ). It uses information from paired-end or long reads to optimally order and orient contigs assembled from...
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...
When you have both Illumina and Nanopore data, then SPAdes remains a good option for hybrid assembly - SPAdes was used to produce the B fragilis assembly by Mick Watson’s group.
Again, running spades.py will show you the...

In graph theory, a string graph is an intersection graph of curves in the plane; each curve is called a "string". String graphs were first proposed by E. W. Myers in a 2005 publication.
