bitbucket.org - SimLoRD is a read simulator for third generation sequencing reads and is currently focused on the Pacific Biosciences SMRT error model. Reads are simulated from both strands of a provided or randomly generated reference sequence. The reference...

When you're just starting out with biological programming, it's easy to run into complex problems that make you wonder how anyone has ever managed to write a program.

github.com - Rebaler is a program for conducting reference-based assemblies using long reads. It relies mainly on minimap2 for alignment and Racon for making consensus sequences. I made Rebaler for bacterial genomes (specifically for the...
