BakRep (Denglish blend of Bakterien & Repository) simplifies access to this data. It integrates enriched genomic information with metadata accessible via a flexible search-engine.

Key features

• Assembly statistics: ensure data quality with genome-based key metrics
• Taxonomic classification: robust, purely genome-based classifications (GTDB)
• MLST: subtyping for deeper insights into genetic variation
• Annotation: comprehensive & taxonomy-independent (Bakta)
• Metadata: full original submission records

NCBI Hackathon specifically looking for folks who have experience in computational virus hunting or adjacent fields to identify known, taxonomically-definable and novel viruses from a few hundred thousand metagenomic datasets that we’ll put on cloud infrastructure. This event is for researchers, including students and postdocs, who are already engaged in the use of bioinformatics data or in the development of pipelines for virological analyses from high-throughput experiments. If this describes you, please apply! The event is open to anyone selected for the hackathon and willing to travel to SDSU (see below).

Protocol Overview / Introduction

In this protocol we discuss and outline the process of de novo assembly for small to medium sized genomes.

Ra is in development since 2014 in the form of several separate components that used to be run individually.
This project aims to ease the usage of Ra by integrating it into a complete de novo assembly tool.

Unlike other state-of-the-art assemblers, Ra does not have an error correction step. Instead, it relies on detecting overlaps using a very sensitive and specific overlapper ("graphmap -w owler", https://github.com/isovic/graphmap) and constructing and reducing an overlap graph (Ra layout, https://github.com/mariokostelac/ra).

The successful candidate will be in charge of the detection of polymorphisms including structural variants, of the comparison of multiple and diverse genomes of a same species and of the construction of pan- and core-genomes. These challenging tasks will require bioinformatics developments and implementation of methods for accommodating the high level of repetitiveness of complex genomes. The tools will be integrated into pipelines and made available to end-users through the Galaxy platform. The bioinformatician will therefore also have to provide researchers with advices on their experimental designs in order to ensure compliance of produced datasets with pipelines requirements. He/she will be hosted by a bioinformatics/informatics team (7 people) (http://moulon.inra.fr/index.php/fr/equipestransversales/atelier-de-bioinformatique) which has computational facilities and expertise in NGS data analysis, and will benefit as well from national and international collaborative networks (Aplibio http://www.renabi.fr/platforms/aplibio/, Transplant http://transplantdb.eu, AMAIZING http://www.amaizing.fr/).

The position requires a doctoral degree (PhD) in bioinformatics with strong expertise in script writing (Python/Perl) and pipeline development.

Applicants should send a CV and the names of 2 referees willing to provide a letter of recommendation to joets@moulon.inra.fr.
