https://plast.inria.fr/ - PLAST is a fast, accurate and NGS scalable bank-to-bank sequence similarity search tool providing significant accelerations of seeds-based heuristic comparison methods, such as the Blast suite of algorithms. Relying on unique software architecture,...

github.com - Mix is a tool that combines two or more draft assemblies, without relying on a reference genome and has the goal to reduce contig fragmentation and thus speed-up genome finishing. The proposed algorithm builds an extension graph where vertices...

Lecturer/Senior Lecturer (Level B/C) in Synthetic Biology, Research Fellow (Level B) in Synthetic Biology & Lecturer/Senior Lecturer (Level B/C) in Bioinformatics Apply now Job no: 494553 Work type: Continuing full time Vacancy type:...

github.com - HALC, a high throughput algorithm for long read error correction. HALC aligns the long reads to short read contigs from the same species with a relatively low identity requirement so that a long read region can be aligned to at least one contig...

The Bioinformatics and Systems Biology Unit of Université de Liège (Belgium) is looking for a highly motivated master student with programming skills for a PhD thesis project (4 years, fully funded) with the goal of designing computational tools...

github.com - KAT is a suite of tools that analyse jellyfish hashes or sequence files (fasta or fastq) using kmer counts. The following tools are currently available in KAT: hist: Create an histogram of k-mer occurrences from a sequence file. Adds metadata in...

We are looking for a motivated and autonomous intern to study gene expression in hybrid organisms. The student will work on natural hybrids of two or three different species of fungal endosymbionts of grasses. The pupose of this project is to build...

Meaningful analysis of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data, which are produced extensively by genetics and genomics studies, relies crucially on the accurate calling of SNPs and genotypes. Recently developed statistical methods both improve and...

The bioinformatics unit at IRCCS Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza - Mendel laboratory in Rome is looking for one young bioinformatician with specific experience and/or interest in the analysis of genomics and transcriptomic data. The candidate will...

github.com - new de novo assembler called BASE. It enhances the classic seed-extension approach by indexing the reads efficiently to generate adaptive seeds that have high probability to appear uniquely in the genome. Such seeds form the basis for BASE...
