bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org - The genome sequencing revolution is approaching a landmark figure of 1000 completely sequenced genomes. Coupled with fast-declining, per-base sequencing costs, this influx of DNA sequence data has encouraged laboratory scientists to engage large...
github.com - A comparative genome scaffolding tool based on MUMmer
mScaffolder scaffolds a genome using an existing high quality genome as the reference. It aligns the two genomes using nucmer utility from MUMmer and then orders and orients the contigs of the...
github.com - Genome U-Plot for producing clear and intuitive graphs that allows researchers to generate novel insights and hypotheses by visualizing SVs such as deletions, amplifications, and chromoanagenesis events. The main features of the Genome U-Plot are...

£31.1K per annum inclusive of London Weighting
This is a fixed term post for 36 months.
We wish to recruit a highly motivated, postdoctoral scientist to carry out a BBSRC...
github.com - GRSR is a Tool for Deriving Genome Rearrangement Scenarios for Multiple Uni-chromosomal Genomes. This tool will do the following steps:
Step 1. Run mugsy to get multiple sequence alignment results.
Step 2 & 3. Extraction of the Coordinates...
The Roth Lab seeks insight into biological systems through genome- and proteome-scale experimentation and analysis.
Current computational interests:
Systematic analysis of genetic epistasis to identify redundant or compensatory systems and to...
github.com - Cogent is a tool that identifies gene families and reconstructs the coding genome using high-quality transcriptome data without a reference genome, and can be used to check assemblies for the presence of these known coding...
wiki.bits.vib.be - compare two BWA mapping methods with the online hg18-mapped data
We first operate a rapid inspection of the different BAM files using samtools flagstat. Illumina provided chr21 read mapping obtained with their GA IIx deep...
With the emergence of NGS technologies, and sequencing data most of the bioinformaticians mung and wrangle around massive amounts of genomics text. There are several "standardized" file formats (FASTQ, SAM, VCF, etc.) and some tools for manipulating...
www.gigasciencejournal.com - Bioinformatics software varies greatly in quality. In terms of usability, the command line interface is the first experience a user will have of a tool. Unfortunately, this is often also the last time a tool will be used. Here I present ten...
