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...

http://www.hiveplot.com/ - The hive plot is a rational visualization method for drawing networks. Nodes are mapped to and positioned on radially distributed linear axes — this mapping is based on network structural properties. Edges are drawn as curved links....

www.bx.psu.edu - Laj is a tool for viewing and manipulating the output from pairwise alignment programs such as blastz. It can display interactive dotplot, pip, and text representations of the alignments, a diagram showing the locations of exons and repeats, and...

www.bx.psu.edu - A computational pipeline for identifying single-base substitutions between two closely related genomes without the help of a reference genome. DIAL works even when the depth of coverage is insufficient for de novo assembly, and it can be extended to...

code.google.com - splitbam splits a BAM by chromosomes. Using the reference sequence dictionary (*.dict), it also creates some empty BAM files if no sam record was found for a chromosome. A pair of 'mock' SAM-Records can also be added to those empty BAMs to...

chunlab.wordpress.com - CLgenomics is a standalone desktop software specifically designed for bacterial genome analysis. This program has a powerful multi-genome browser, which enables rapid and responsive exploration of bacterial genomes. To use CLgenomics, individual...

downloads.jbei.org - MaxBin is software for binning assembled metagenomic sequences based on an Expectation-Maximization algorithm. Users can understand the underlying bins (genomes) of the microbes in their metagenomes by simply providing assembled metagenomic...

github.com - GroopM is a metagenomic binning toolset. It leverages spatio-temoraldynamics (differential coverage) to accurately (and almost automatically)extract population genomes from multi-sample metagenomic datasets. GroopM is largely parameter-free. Use:...

Why bioinformatician still using Perl when Python is easy to code, good in ReXp and faster than perl?

github.com - This project contains scripts and tutorials on how to assemble individual microbial genomes from metagenomes, as described in: Genome sequences of rare, uncultured bacteria obtained by differential coverage binning of multiple metagenomes Mads...
