BIOSTEC, the 11th International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies. Registration to BIOINFORMATICS allows free access to all other BIOSTEC conferences. Upcoming Deadlines Regular Paper Submission: July 31,...

fsa.sourceforge.net - FSA is a probabilistic multiple sequence alignment algorithm which uses a "distance-based" approach to aligning homologous protein, RNA or DNA sequences. Much as distance-based phylogenetic reconstruction methods like Neighbor-Joining build a...

abacas.sourceforge.net - ABACAS is intended to rapidly contiguate (align, order, orientate) , visualize and design primers to close gaps on shotgun assembled contigs based on a reference sequence. It uses MUMmer to find alignment positions and identify syntenies of assembly...

The lab of Immunobiology of Neurological Disorders has a main interest in the biological processes associated with multiple sclerosis, an inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system. The projects of interest for this application involve...

github.com - YASRA (Yet Another Short Read Assembler) performs comparative assembly of short reads using a reference genome, which can differ substantially from the genome being sequenced. Mapping reads to reference genomes makes use of LASTZ (Harris et al), a...

ICGEB NEW DELHI Applications are invited for: Junior Research Fellow, in a DBT funded project, is available in Translational Health Group, ICGEB, New Delhi Qualifications: Education: M.Sc. (preferably in Biotechnology, Life Sciences or...

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 metagenomesMads...

github.com - A program for unsupervised binning of metagenomic contigs by using nucleotide composition, coverage data in multiple samples and linkage data from paired end reads. Warning! This software is to be considered under development. Functionality and the...

In an attempt to find a good Linux reference for bioinformatician and BOL readers, I was unsuccessful at finding a decent one on the Internet. So, we decided to make a cheat sheet for biological programmers.

seqmule.openbioinformatics.org - SeqMule takes single-end or paird-end FASTQ or BAM files, generates a script consisting of more than 10 popular alignment, analysis tools and runs the script line by line. Users can change the pipeline or fine-tune the parameters by modifying its...
