	<title><![CDATA[Meraculous: De Novo Genome Assembly with Short Paired-End Reads]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>We describe a new algorithm, meraculous, for whole genome assembly of deep paired-end short reads, and apply it to the assembly of a dataset of paired 75-bp Illumina reads derived from the 15.4 megabase genome of the haploid yeast&nbsp;</span><em>Pichia stipitis</em><span>. More than 95% of the genome is recovered, with no errors; half the assembled sequence is in contigs longer than 101 kilobases and in scaffolds longer than 269 kilobases. Incorporating fosmid ends recovers entire chromosomes. Meraculous relies on an efficient and conservative traversal of the subgraph of the&nbsp;</span><em>k</em><span>-mer (deBruijn) graph of oligonucleotides with unique high quality extensions in the dataset, avoiding an explicit error correction step as used in other short-read assemblers. A novel memory-efficient hashing scheme is introduced. The resulting contigs are ordered and oriented using paired reads separated by &sim;280 bp or &sim;3.2 kbp, and many gaps between contigs can be closed using paired-end placements. Practical issues with the dataset are described, and prospects for assembling larger genomes are discussed.</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3158087/" rel="nofollow">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3158087/</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[funannotate: Eukaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>Funannotate is a genome prediction, annotation, and comparison software package. It was originally written to annotate fungal genomes (small eukaryotes ~ 30 Mb genomes), but has evolved over time to accomodate larger genomes. The impetus for this software package was to be able to accurately and easily annotate a genome for submission to NCBI GenBank. Existing tools (such as Maker) require significant manually editing to comply with GenBank submission rules, thus funannotate is aimed at simplifying the genome submission process.</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/nextgenusfs/funannotate" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/nextgenusfs/funannotate</a></p>]]></description>

If so then try to get information of those labs and visit them to get a hang of the work they pursue.</p><p>There is a huge buzz of precision medicine in light of genomics all around the world. One should also try to see how genomics infrastructure is built up or standing in Pakistan. If research labs having collaboration with hospitals employ genomics then one must also visit such labs. This will bring new avenues in healthcare advances. Not only it opens up the wealth of knowledge one can make out of genomics study but will also advance the critical thinking of therapies.</p><p>So I would encourage to target research labs working in the fields and also get information of hospitals employing genomics, this will give you an overall understanding of the fields demand in your country.</p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[This code is used to scaffold your assemblies using Hi-C data. This version implements some improvements in the original SALSA algorithm. If you want to use the old version, it can be found in the old_salsa branch.

To use the latest version, first run the following commands:

  cd SALSA
  make
To run the code, you will need Python 2.7, BOOST libraries and Networkx(version lower than 1.2).

If you consider using this tool, please cite our publication which describes the methods used for scaffolding.
