Open to PhD-student and Post-doc candidates
We are looking for wet and computational biologists to work on an ERC funded project in our
laboratory located at the Department of Experimental Oncology of the European...
www.healthcare.uiowa.edu - Added Command line argument support.
Multi-stage execution modes.
Support for parallelization. Now execution proceeds in batches of long reads the size of which can be set by --long_read_batch_size N.
Better compressed intermediate files.
Added...
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...
github.com - Perform Alignment-free k-tuple frequency comparisons from sequences. This can be in the form of two input files (e.g. a reference and a query) or a single file for pairwise comparisons to be made.
github.com - maftools - An R package to summarize, analyze and visualize MAF files. Introduction.
With advances in Cancer Genomics, Mutation Annotation Format (MAF) is being widley accepted and used to store variants detected. The Cancer Genome Atlas Project...
The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) is a powerful bioinformatics program used to compare an input sequence (such as DNA, RNA, or protein sequences) against a database of sequences to find regions of similarity.
dunbrack.fccc.edu - BioDownloader is a program for downloading and/or updating files from ftp/http servers. The program has unique features that are specifically designed to deal with bioinformatics data files and servers:
optimized to work with vast amount of data...
github.com - Typically in comparative genomics, we can identify anchors, chain them into syntenic blocks and interpret these blocks as derived from a common descent. However, when comparing two genomes undergone ancient genome duplications (plant genomes in...
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...
mugsy.sourceforge.net - Mugsy is a multiple whole genome aligner. Mugsy uses Nucmer for pairwise alignment, a custom graph based segmentation procedure for identifying collinear regions, and the segment-based progressive multiple alignment strategy from Seqan::TCoffee....
