Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide

Jit — Thu, 18 Feb 2016 04:50:51 -0600

This tutorial assumes no previous knowledge of scripting or programming, yet progresses rapidly toward an intermediate/advanced level of instruction . . . all the while sneaking in little nuggets of UNIX® wisdom and lore. It serves as a textbook, a manual for self-study, and as a reference and source of knowledge on shell scripting techniques. The exercises and heavily-commented examples invite active reader participation, under the premise that the only way to really learn scripting is to write scripts.

This book is suitable for classroom use as a general introduction to programming concepts.

Snakemake Tutorials !

Rahul Nayak — Mon, 09 May 2022 05:20:41 -0500

A lesson introducing the Snakemake workflow system for bioinformatics analysis.

Prerequisites

This is an intermediate lesson and assumes learners have already done some bioinformatics:

Familiarity with the BASH command shell, including concepts like pipes, variables and loops.

Knowledge of bioinformatics fundamentals like the FASTQ file format and transcriptome sequencing, in order to understand the example workflow.

No previous knowledge of Snakemake or workflow systems is required.

Integration Of Speciation Research : Workshop Announcement

Tue, 28 Apr 2026 07:07:57 -0500

We are excited to share that the ESEB- funded special topic network Integration Of Speciation Research (IOS - https://speciation-network.pages.ist.ac.at/) is hosting a second in-person workshop from 7â€“11 December 2026 at the Scottish Centre for Ecology & the Natural Environment (Glasgow, UK - https://www.gla.ac.uk/research/az/scene/).

This workshop is aimed at bringing together ~40 diverse speciation researchers:

- to collaborate on populating a database of published reproductive barriers based on a standardized RIO framework (https://ecoevorxiv.org/repository/view/10083/). This will involve working through papers during the workshop to extract RI measures and other metadata and entering them into a draft database (some preparatory work before the workshop may be requested to facilitate these steps during the workshop)

- to start working towards a manuscript using this database to answer an outstanding question in speciation

- to network, learn about reproductive isolation, and have fun!

If you are interested in applying to participate in the workshop, please fill out the form in the link below by ** May 20th **. Room & board will be covered by the organizers; all other travel costs are the responsibility of the attendee.

Application link:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSenAMqSdZjeRmKEDtBNa5tpjPn7IukPyT5BzfZ4JMpIk2YOEw/viewform

The previous IOS workshop was held in Finland in 2023 (see more details at https://speciation-network.pages.ist.ac.at/workshops) and resulted in new interactions between speciation researchers and the successful publication of an Integration of Speciation research manuscript (https://academic.oup.com/evolinnean/article/3/1/kzae001/7609448).

We look forward to seeing you in Glasgow!

seqloc 0.6

Gudiya Pal — Sun, 28 Dec 2014 12:51:29 -0600

The Bio.SeqLoc modules in seqloc are designed to represent positions and locations (ranges of positions) on sequences, particularly nucleotide sequences. My original motivation for writing these packages was handing the locations of genes in eukaryotic genomes.
