www.well.ox.ac.uk - Platypus is a tool designed for efficient and accurate variant-detection in high-throughput sequencing data. By using local realignment of reads and local assembly it achieves both high sensitivity and high specificity. Platypus can detect...
github.com - Long-read sequencing technologies have become increasingly popular in genome projects due to their strengths in resolving complex genomic regions. As a leading model organism with small genome size and great biotechnological importance, the budding...
In today’s era of big biology, we’re generating more data than ever before—genomes, transcriptomes, proteomes, metabolomes, microbiomes… you name it. But raw biological data doesn’t speak for itself. Making sense of it requires more than traditional...
Which are the best statistical programming languages to study for a bioinformatician?
Statistical functional genomics in experimental medicine
The genome projects and the accelerated development of high-throughput genomic technologies such as microarrays have revolutionised biology. Making the most of this revolution requires the...
They are based in the Department of Genetics at the University of Cambridge.
The research covers diverse areas of evolutionary biology, and molecular evolution in particular. It combines theoretical and empirical approaches, and particularly...
