evomics.org - When delving into bioinformatics, having access to reliable resources is crucial for effective research and analysis. Key online resources include the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), which offers tools like BLAST for sequence...

www.molgen.mpg.de - Ranbow is a haplotype assembler for polyploid genomes. It has been developed for the haplotype assembly of the hexaploid sweet potato genome, which is highly heterozygous. Ranbow can also be applied to other polyploid genomes. After a first phasing,...

The post-holder will work under the direction of the Precision Medicine Centre of Excellence's (PMC) Bioinformatics lead and collaborate closely with the Scientific and Clinical leads. The primary responsibilities will be to develop, validate and...

A fully funded 4-year Postdoc position is available in the lab of Patrick Tschopp at the University of Basel, Switzerland, study the molecular and tissue-scale dynamics during the embryonic formation of the vertebrate skeleton and compare it...

Fungal research is a rapidly growing field with vast implications for medicine, agriculture, and industry. For bioinformaticians, the availability of specialized resources—databases, tools, and community platforms—opens doors to innovative...

github.com - Apollo is an assembly polishing algorithm that attempts to correct the errors in an assembly. It can take multiple set of reads in a single run and polish the assemblies of genomes of any size. Described by Firtina et al. (preliminary version...

Entering the world of bioinformatics is an exciting journey, filled with opportunities to combine biology, data science, and technology to address some of the most pressing scientific challenges. However, securing a position in this competitive...

www.genengnews.com - The report adds to growing experimental support for the idea that all that extra stuff in the human genes, once referred to as “junk DNA,” is more than functionless, space-filling material that happens to make up nearly 98% of the...
