The 3rd Annual Next Generation Sequencing Asia Congress is to be held on the 22nd and 23rd of October 2013 in Singapore. Over the 2 days, the conference will provide an overview of the current options of next-generation sequencing platforms,...

FYI, I've found it useful to use MUMmer to extract the specific changes that Racon makes, so I can evaluate them individually: minimap -t 24 assembly.fasta long_reads.fastq.gz | racon -t 24 long_reads.fastq.gz - assembly.fasta...
