Compressive Genomics

Rahul Agarwal — Sun, 11 Aug 2013 11:13:58 -0500

The key to finding a solution is to notice that most genomicsequences differ by very little. It may well be that the number of complete genome sequences being stored is increasing rapidly, but the actual amount of new data is very small. In other words, a single DNA sequence isn't particularly compressible but a set of sequences shares so much in common that the redundancy can be used to store them in a much smaller storage space.

The Genome 10K Project

Tue, 29 Jul 2014 09:11:04 -0500

https://genome10k.soe.ucsc.edu The Genome 10K project aims to assemble a genomic zoo—a collection of DNA sequences representing the genomes of 10,000 vertebrate species, approximately one for every vertebrate genus. The trajectory of cost reduction in DNA sequencing suggests that this project will be feasible within a few years. Capturing the genetic diversity of vertebrate species would create an unprecedented resource for the life sciences and for worldwide conservation efforts. The growing Genome 10K Community of Scientists (G10KCOS), made up of leading scientists representing major zoos, museums, research centers, and universities around the world, is dedicated to coordinating efforts in tissue specimen collection that will lay the groundwork for a large-scale sequencing and analysis project.

Webinar on Streamlining large scale analysis using the Strand NGS Pipeline Manager on 24 Feb 2016

Yeshodari — Fri, 05 Feb 2016 06:43:28 -0600

Live Webinar on Streamlining large scale NGS data analysis using the Strand NGS Pipeline Manager on 24 Feb 2016

Abstract: Strand NGS includes comprehensive workflows for DNA-Seq, RNA-Seq, Small RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq, MeDIP-Seq, and Methyl-Seq analysis. Each workflow includes a quality assessment and filter section, followed by a workflow-specific analysis section. The pipeline functionality in Strand NGS allows users to execute a sequence of analysis steps with specific parameters - all without any manual intervention. This simplifies the analysis in large scale sequencing projects where every sample needs to be processed identically.

In this webinar we will discuss the pre-packaged pipelines present in Strand NGS. The packaged pipelines have well-chosen default parameters and are suitable for users analyzing data for the first time in the tool. We will also show how advanced users can customize pipelines and share them with other Strand NGS users. Finally, we will show a brief glimpse of an elaborate pipeline that aligns reads, filters poor-quality matches, computes coverage metrics, identifies variants, checks for sample cross-contamination, and emails quality reports - all from within Strand NGS.

Speaker: Dr. Vamsi Veeramachaneni, Vice President - Bioinformatics, Strand Life Sciences

Details: Session 1: 2:30 PM IST, Session 2 : 10:30 PM IST
