To remove all line ends (\n) from a Unix text file: sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n//g' filename.txt > newfilename_oneline.txt To get average for a column of numbers (here the second column $2): awk '{ sum += $2; n++ } END { if (n > 0) print sum / n;...

github.com - HiCanu, a significant modification of the Canu assembler designed to leverage the full potential of HiFi reads via homopolymer compression, overlap-based error correction, and aggressive false overlap filtering.  More...

Here is a small tutorial on how to make best use of multiple processors for bioinformatics analysis. One best way is using perl threads and forks. Knowing how these threads and forks work is very important before implementing them. Getting to know...

www.broadinstitute.org - VICUNA is a de novo assembly program targeting populations with high mutation rates. It creates a single linear representation of the mixed population on which intra-host variants can be mapped. For clinical samples rich in...

Key Responsibilities - Process and analyse metabolomic, transcriptional, genomics, proteomics and any other kind of biological data. - Interpret the data in the context of relevant biological literature to generate actionable insights. -...

github.com - GraphUnzip, a fast, memory-efficient and accurate tool to unzip assembly graphs into their constituent haplotypes using long reads and/or Hi-C data. As GraphUnzip only connects sequences in the assembly graph that already had a potential link based...

Bioinformatics National Certification (BINC) Exam conducted once per year by DBT has been now merged with DBT- BET JRF Exam
