14 PhD positions in the EU Horizon 2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Project PRECODE: International training network which sets a joint research programme to train a new generation of leading scientists in model systems and methods for the development of...

novelseq.sourceforge.net - The NovelSeq framework is designed to detect novel sequence insertions using high throughput paired-end whole genome sequencing data. http://novelseq.sourceforge.net/Home Paper at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20385726

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - This tool detects statistically validated events of gene acquisitions with the help of the T-REX algorithm by comparing individual gene tree with NCBI species tree. In between the steps, the workflow decides about handling paralogs, filtering...

github.com - Alvis, a simple command line tool that can generate visualisations for a number of common alignment analysis tasks. Alvis is a fast and portable tool that accepts input in a variety of alignment formats and will output production ready vector...

static.ciscall.org - cisMuton is a caller that detects SNVs/indels by comparing target (foreground) and control (background) samples. cisMuton calls mutations from target capture regions, which are defined by the overlapping regions...

kiwi.cs.dal.ca - RITA is a standalone software package and Web server for taxonomic assignment of metagenomic sequence reads. By combining homology predictions from BLAST or UBLAST with compositional classifications from a Naive Bayes classifier, RITA is able to...

How many variants of "omics" techniques presently in use ?

www.today.com - “What we really don’t know yet is whether the predictive aspects of the genome are going to turn out to be beneficial or potentially harmful” “As we roll out genomic medicine we are fighting against this society-wide...

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
