derisilab.ucsf.edu - We are pleased to release PRICE (Paired-Read Iterative Contig Extension), a de novo genome assembler implemented in C++. Its name describes the strategy that it implements for genome assembly: PRICE uses paired-read information to iteratively...
The Huber group develops computational and statistical methods to design and analyse novel experimental approaches in genetics and cell biology.
Future projects and goals
Large-scale systematic maps of gene-gene and gene-environment...

github.com - SCUBAT (Scaffolding Contigs Using BLAT And Transcripts) uses any set of transcripts to identify cases where a transcript is split over multiple genome fragments and attempts to use this information to scaffold the genome.
School of Computational and Integrative Sciences under Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi invited applications for filling up 4 posts of Research Associates (RA) and Junior Research Fellow (JRF) (2 posts each) purely on temporary basis, liable...
github.com - Alonge M, Soyk S, Ramakrishnan S, Wang X, Goodwin S, Sedlazeck FJ, Lippman ZB, Schatz MC: Fast and accurate reference-guided scaffolding of draft genomes. bioRxiv 2019.
RaGOO is a tool for coalescing genome assembly contigs into...
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 - EAGLER is a scaffolding tool for long reads. The scaffolder takes as input a draft genome created by any NGS assembler and a set of long reads. The long reads are used to extend the contigs present in the NGS draft and possibly join overlapping...
