genomearchitect.github.io - Apollo is a plug-in for the JBrowse Genome Viewer. In addition to genes and pseudogenes, users can annotate ncRNAs (snRNA, snoRNA, tRNA, rRNA), miRNAs, repeat regions, and transposable elements; each annotation type has its own...

The spectacular advances of the last few years resulted in the rapid analysis of the genome sequence of each individual. The biomedical world is now faced with the enormous challenges of assigning pathogenicity to each genomic variant, the...

github.com - Simulated genomes with pre-defined and random genomic variants can be very useful for benchmarking genomic and bioinformatics analyses. Here we introduce simuG, a lightweight tool for simulating the full-spectrum of genomic variants (single...

The ambition of the Molecular and Computational Biology Research School (MCB) is to create an attractive and stimulating training environment for PhD students in molecular and computational biology, both to better serve the needs for relevant...

This group interested in modeling genome dynamics in following topics: ---how genetic variation is distributed within and between individuals, ---determining how this diversity changes over evolutionary time. Hence, Cox group work at the...

training.galaxyproject.org - The main challenge associated with non-diploid variant calling is the difficulty in distinguishing between the sequencing noise (abundant in all NGS platforms) and true low frequency variants. Some of the early attempts to do this well have been...
