	<description><![CDATA[<p>This is a collection of libraries and high-quality end-user scripts for bioinformatic analysis, including working with gene annotation, collecting data scores from a variety of modern file formats, and conversion between file formats. The Bio::ToolBox libraries provide a unified, abstracted interface to multiple common gene annotation formats and the collection of data from multiple data files. They rely on BioPerl SeqFeature libraries and related adaptors to access binary file formats including Bam, BigWig, BigBed, and USeq. The Bio::ToolBox package includes scripts for setting up databases of annotation, collecting annotated features, collecting genomic data relative to features, manipulating and analyzing data, and data format conversion.</p>

	<title><![CDATA[Learning Python Programming - a bioinformatician perspective !]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Python Programming&nbsp;is a general purpose programming language that is open source, flexible, powerful and easy to use. One of the most important features of python is its rich set of utilities and libraries for data processing and analytics tasks. In the current era of big biological data, python and biopython is getting more popularity due to its easy-to-use features which supports big data processing.</p><p>In this tutorial series article, I will explore features and packages of python which are widely used in the big data, NGS, and bioinformatics. I will also walk through a real biological example which shows NGS data processing with the help of python packages and programming.</p><p>Python has a couple of points to recommend it to biologists and scientists specifically:</p><ul>
<li>It's widely used in the scientific community</li>
<li>It has a couple of very well designed libraries for doing complex scientific computing (although we won't encounter them in this book)</li>
<li>It lend itself well to being integrated with other, existing tools</li>
<li>It has features which make it easy to manipulate strings of characters (for example, strings of DNA bases and protein amino acid residues, which we as biologists are particularly fond of)</li>
</ul><p>In general, following are some of the important features of python which makes it a perfect fit for rapid application development.</p><ul>
<li>Python is interpreted language so the program does not need to be compiled. Interpreter parses the program code and generates the output.</li>
<li>Python is dynamically typed, so the variables types are defined automatically.</li>
<li>Python is strongly typed. So the developers need to cast the type manually.</li>
<li>Less code and more use makes it more acceptable.</li>
<li>Python is portable, extendable and scalable.</li>
</ul><p>There are two major Python versions, Python 2 and Python 3. Python 2 and 3 are quite different. This tutorial uses Python 3, because it more semantically correct and supports newer features.</p><p>I will post tutorial on daily basis on this page. Check the sub-pages on right side.</p>]]></description>

<p>mScaffolder scaffolds a genome using an existing high quality genome as the reference. It aligns the two genomes using nucmer utility from MUMmer and then orders and orients the contigs of the candidate genome guided by their alignments to the reference genome.

  <description><![CDATA[
<p>Infectious disease control needs to be made more “sustainable”. We need to reduce selective pressure on pathogens to evolve antibiotic resistance. We need to control infectious disease outbreaks and associated immune disorders with a better understanding of the genetic,  environmental and social factors that impact disease spread and severity.</p>

<p>Research Area</p>

<p>Investigating the role in disease of both the microbe and its host (i.e immune system failure), using genomics and systems biology-based approaches<br />Using genomics and network analysis to characterize disease outbreaks and their environmental/social/genetic causes, and<br />Identifying new anti-infective and immune modulating therapies/biomarkers.</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>The completion of the first human genome drafts was just a start of the modern DNA sequencing era which resulted in further invention, improved development toward new advanced strategies of high-throughput DNA sequencing, so called the &ldquo;high-throughput next generation sequencing&rdquo; (HT-NGS). The decreasing genome sequencing cost and desire to explore and understand biological machanism at genomic level, speed up the genomic sequencing projects. In the fast growing HT-NGS technologies, the main challenge is to cope with the analysis of vast production of sequencing database through advanced bioinformatics tools. In oder to develope sotware/tools bioinformatician/ biological programmers need to expertise in any one one the programming language. However, sometime one language are not enough to handle all sort of biological needs, which compel us to learn new biologically suitable language to handle ever growing genome or protein sequences.</p><p>The next step after reading genetic code is writing a script to analyse and explore the hidden information. This tutorial is aimed to introduce you new biological programming languages with their packages/libraries, and assist in your scripting work.</p><p>Navigate the sub-section of this page [ see right hand side of the page for it ]</p>]]></description>
