We are a computational biology lab that develops novel methods for analysis of DNA and RNA sequences. Our research includes software for aligning and assembling RNA-seq data, whole-genome assembly, and microbiome analysis. We work closely with...
shendurelab.github.io - LACHESIS is method that exploits contact probability map data (e.g. from Hi-C) for chromosome-scale de novo genome assembly.
Further information about LACHESIS, including source code, documentation and a user's guide are available...
github.com - Canu is a fork of the Celera Assembler designed for high-noise single-molecule sequencing (such as the PacBio RSII or Oxford Nanopore MinION). The software is currently alpha level, feel free to use and report issues encountered.
Canu is...
sourceforge.net - Contiguity preserving transposition and sequencing (CPT-seq) is an entirely in vitro means of generating libraries comprised of 9216 indexed pools, each of which contains thousands of sparsely sequenced long fragments ranging from 5 kilobases to...
sourceforge.net - Genobuntu is a software package containing more than 70 software and packages oriented towards NGS. In its current version, Genobuntu supports pre assembly tools, genome assemblers as well as post assembly tools.Commonly used biological software and...
github.com - Hagfish is a tool that is to be used in data analysis of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) experiments. Hagfish builds on the concept of coverage plots and aims to assist (amongst others) in quality control of de novo genome assembly or...
alan.cs.gsu.edu - caffMatch is a novel scaffolding tool based on Maximum-Weight Matching able to produce high-quality scaffolds from NGS data (reads and contigs). The tool is written in Python 2.7. It also includes a bash script wrapper that calls aligner in case one...
github.com - Software package for signal-level analysis of Oxford Nanopore sequencing data. Nanopolish can calculate an improved consensus sequence for a draft genome assembly, detect base modifications, call SNPs and indels with respect to a reference genome...
