www.nature.com - There is no disputing the importance of statistical analysis in biological research, but too often it is considered only after an experiment is completed, when it may be too late. This collection highlights important statistical issues that...

github.com - NextDenovo is a string graph-based de novo assembler for TGS long reads. It uses a "correct-then-assemble" strategy similar to canu, but requires significantly less computing resources and storages. After assembly, the per-base error rate...

github.com - LINKS is a genomics application for scaffolding genome assemblies with long reads, such as those produced by Oxford Nanopore Technologies Ltd. It can be used to scaffold high-quality draft genome assemblies with any long sequences (eg. ONT reads,...

github.com - MEC, to identify and correct misassemblies in contigs. Firstly, MEC takes fragment coverage as the feature to detect the candidate misassemblies. Then, it can distinguish a large number of false positives from the candidate misassemblies based on...

Basics concepts of Probability: The Study of Randomness Biostatistics is the application of statistics to a wide range of topics in biology. The science of biostatistics encompasses the design of biological experiments, especially in medicine,...

github.com - SvABA is a method for detecting structural variants in sequencing data using genome-wide local assembly. Under the hood, SvABA uses a custom implementation of SGA (String Graph Assembler) by Jared Simpson, and BWA-MEM by Heng Li....

www.nature.com - Alignment of the porcine genome against seven other mammalian genomes (Supplementary Information) identified homologous synteny blocks (HSBs). Using porcine HSBs and stringent filtering criteria, 192 pig-specific evolutionary breakpoint regions...

github.com - RefKA, a reference-based approach for long read genome assembly. This approach relies on breaking up a closely related reference genome into bins, aligning k-mers unique to each bin with PacBio reads, and then assembling each bin in parallel...

NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF CANCER PREVENTION & RESEARCH (ICMR) Noida 201301 (U.P) Applications are invited upto 21.11.2016 from interested candidates as per details available on NICPR website (www.nicpr.res.in)/ ICMR website (www.icmr.nic.in)...

www.broadinstitute.org - VICUNA is a de novo assembly program targeting populations with high mutation rates. It creates a single linear representation of the mixed population on which intra-host variants can be mapped. For clinical samples rich in...
