github.com - Despite marked recent improvements in long-read sequencing technology, the assembly of diploid genomes remains a difficult task. A major obstacle is distinguishing between alternative contigs that represent highly heterozygous regions. If primary...

The Brent Lab is developing and applying computational methods for mapping gene regulation networks, modeling them quantitatively, and engineering new behaviors into them.

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;...

The interaction between proteins and other molecules is fundamental to all biological functions. In this section we include tools that can assist in prediction of interaction sites on protein surface and tools for predicting the structure of the...

lh3.github.io - Given a de novo assembly, we often measure the “average” contig length by N50. N50 is neither the real average nor median. It is the length of the contig such that this and longer contigs cover at least 50% of the assembly. A...

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...

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. -...

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

www.cellbiol.com - This web development course, targeted at Biology and Bioinformatics students, aims at teaching from scratch all the skills needed to setup a fully working Linux web server and to develop and deploy web applications for Bioinformatics. No previous...

Study the process of Adaptive Evolution, during which species adopt novel traits to overcome challenges. We retrace the evolutionary histories of genomic elements to determine the changes underlying adaptation and to discover previously unknown...
