Abstract submissions for our upcoming symposium on the Genomics of Adaptation that will take place as part of the 16th Congress of the European Society for Evolutionary Biology (ESEB). The conference will take place from August 20th - August 25th,...

darlinglab.org - Mauve is a system for constructing multiple genome alignments in the presence of large-scale evolutionary events such as rearrangement and inversion. Multiple genome alignments provide a basis for research into comparative genomics and the study of...

github.com - Unicycler is an assembly pipeline for bacterial genomes. It can assemble Illumina-only read sets where it functions as a SPAdes-optimiser. It can also assembly long-read-only sets (PacBio or Nanopore) where it runs...

An algorithm is a procedure for solving a problem in terms of the actions to be executed and the order in which those actions are to be executed. An algorithm is merely the sequence of steps taken to solve a problem. The steps are normally...

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...

www.iam.u-tokyo.ac.jp - Cgaln (Coarse grained alignment) is a program designed to align a pair of whole genomic sequences of not only bacteria but also entire chromosomes of vertebrates on a nominal desktop computer. Cgaln performs an alignment job in two steps, at 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.

BIOSTEC, the 11th International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies. Registration to BIOINFORMATICS allows free access to all other BIOSTEC conferences. Upcoming Deadlines Regular Paper Submission: July 31,...

github.com - A de novo genome assembly can be summarised b y a number of metrics, including: Overall assembly length Number of scaffolds/contigs Length of longest scaffold/contig Scaffold/contig N50 and N90Assembly base composition, in...

As part of the PhD program in Computer Science at University of Essex, I am looking for a PhD student in computational and synthetic biology. The ideal candidate is interested in designing new biological design automation methods for genome scale...
