Once your research group is ready to make a larger investment and hire a bioinformatician to gain a competitive edge, there are several key traits to seek out in potential candidates. The best bioinformatician are:-
The genome of 130 mammals was sequenced by a large international consortium and the data was analyzed together with 110 existing genomes to allow scientists to identify the important positions in the DNA.

github.com - The first and the only pre-alignment filtering algorithm that works efficiently and fast on modern CPU, FPGA, and GPU architectures. SneakySnake greatly (by more than two orders of magnitude) expedites sequence alignment calculation for both short...
frodock.chaconlab.org - frodock: a user-friendly protein–protein docking server based on an improved version of FRODOCK that includes a complementary knowledge-based potential. The web interface provides a very effective tool to explore and select...
academic.oup.com - The Docker image is available at https://hub.docker.com/r/biodatageeks/. Supplementary information on benchmarking procedure as well as test data are publicly accessible at the project documentation...
github.com - PuffAligner, a fast, accurate and versatile aligner built on top of the Pufferfish index. PuffAligner is able to produce highly sensitive alignments, similar to those of Bowtie2, but much more quickly. While exhibiting similar speed to the ultrafast...
github.com - ReMILO, a reference assisted misassembly detection algorithm that uses both short reads and PacBio SMRT long reads. ReMILO aligns the initial short reads to both the contigs and reference genome, and then constructs a novel data structure called...
