genomebiology.biomedcentral.com - The well-established inaccuracy of purely computational methods for annotating genome sequences necessitates an interactive tool to allow biological experts to refine these approximations by viewing and independently evaluating the data supporting...
An algorithm is a procedure for solving a problem in terms of the actions to be executed and the order in which those actions are to be executed. An algorithm is merely the sequence of steps taken to solve a problem. The steps are normally...
ekhidna2.biocenter.helsinki.fi - PANNZER (Protein ANNotation with Z-scoRE) is a fully automated service for functional annotation of prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins of unknown function.

biochem218.stanford.edu - Excellent article to introduce different sequencing methods along with tools for de novo assembly of sequencing reads and their relevant references.
Title: Comparison of Short Read De Novo Alignment Algorithms
Author: Nikhil Gopal
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 - 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...
github.com - MashMap is a fast and approximate software for mapping long reads (PacBio/ONT) or assembly to reference genome(s). It maps a query sequence against a reference region if and only if its estimated alignment identity is above a specified threshold. It...
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - RGFA, an implementation of the proposed GFA specification in Ruby. It allows the user to conveniently parse, edit and write GFA files. Complex operations such as the separation of the implicit instances of repeats and the merging of linear paths can...
