PRISM

Jit — Sat, 10 Dec 2016 15:19:40 -0600

PRISM is a software for split read (reads which span across a structrual variant -- SV ) mapping and SV calling from the mapping result. PRISM is able to detect small insertions and abitrary size deletions, inversions and tandom duplications with the direction of discordant read pairs. PRISM_CTX is a tool for detecting inter-chromosome trans-location events.

PRISM and PRISM_CTX were originally designed and written by Michael Brudno and Yue Jiang, The original PRISM publication can be found here.

The authors may be contacted via e-mail at: prism at cs.toronto.edu.

Additional information is available in the PRISM README file and PRISM_CTX README file.

MetaSim A Sequencing Simulator for Genomics and Metagenomics.

Jit — Mon, 04 Dec 2017 07:18:20 -0600

Our software can be used to generate collections of synthetic reads that reflect the diverse taxonomical composition of typical metagenome data sets. Based on a database of given genomes, the program allows the user to design a metagenome by specifying the number of genomes present at different levels of the NCBI taxonomy, and then to collect reads from the metagenome using a simulation of a number of different sequencing technologies. A population sampler optionally produces evolved sequences based on source genomes and a given evolutionary tree.

PLANT COMPUTATIONAL GENOMICS LAB – JILL WEGRZYN

Thu, 20 Aug 2020 19:49:12 -0500

Our research focuses on the computational analysis of genomic and transcriptomic sequences from non-model plant species. We do this by developing approaches to examine gene finding, gene expression, transcriptome assembly, and conserved element identification, through machine learning and computational statistics. We use these novel methods to address questions related to genome biology and population genomics.

We also develop web-based applications that integrate data across domains to facilitate the forest geneticist or ecologist’s ability to analyze, share, and visualize their data. Such integration requires the implementation of semantic technologies and ontologies to connect genotype, phenotype, and environmental data.

Postdoctoral Position in Evolutionary Genomics and Bioinformatics, at the Center for Interdisciplinary Neuroscience at University of Valparaiso, Valparaiso, Chile.

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 02:36:00 -0500

The Center for Interdisciplinary Neuroscience of Valparaiso (CINV)
in Valparaiso, Chile, invites postdoctoral researchers to apply for
a Postdoctoral Fellowship focusing on understanding the evolution of
genes and molecular pathways that play a role on inflammatory processes
driving diseases affecting the central nervous system.

The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to this project using
a combination of evolutionary and comparative genomics, as well as a
diverse set of bioinformatic approaches for data analysis and integration
(e.g., transcriptomics, genomics, phenotypic data). This position offers
a unique opportunity to integrate diverse state-of-the-art genomic and
phenotypic datasets across different model organisms to understand the
role of genes, molecular pathways in the origin of complex diseases.

CINV provides a highly collaborative and multidisciplinary environment
using a variety of computational and experimental approaches,
including genetically tractable animal models as well as expertise in
genetics, behavior, glia-neuron communication, metabolism, biophysics,
genomics, bioinformatics, host-microbe communication, and biomolecular
modelling. The new postdoc will be part of one of our labs which focuses
more generally on the intersection between molecular evolution and
disease biology.

Required qualifications are a PhD in evolutionary biology, computational
biology, bioinformatics, or closely related fields. Candidates must have
excellent verbal and written communication skills (working language
is English), as well as an established record of productivity (e.g.,
at least one previous peer-reviewed publication). Candidates with a
past record of publications in bioinfomatics, computational biology,
population genetics or evolutionary genomics are strongly preferred. Ideal
candidates should have experience in analyzing genomic and phenomic
data, performing comparative evolution or population genomic analyses,
as well as in collaborating with experimentalists.

Interested candidates should first contact Evandro Ferrada at
. Please include the following: (1) a cover
letter addressing your interest in the position and how your expertise
meets the position requirements, (2) a CV, (3) contact information of
at least 2 references. A short online interview will follow to discuss
specific proposals. Candidate materials will be reviewed as soon as
possible until the position is filled.
