sunbeam: A robust, extensible metagenomics pipeline

Jit — Thu, 18 Jun 2020 06:58:52 -0500

Sunbeam is a pipeline written in snakemake that simplifies and automates many of the steps in metagenomic sequencing analysis. It uses conda to manage dependencies, so it doesn't have pre-existing dependencies or admin privileges, and can be deployed on most Linux workstations and clusters. To read more, check out our paper in Microbiome.

ContigExtender: a new approach to improving de novo sequence assembly for viral metagenomics data

LEGE — Wed, 08 May 2024 07:32:45 -0500

ContigExtender, was developed to extend contigs, complementing de novo assembly. ContigExtender employs a novel recursive Overlap Layout Candidates (r-OLC) strategy that explores multiple extending paths to achieve longer and highly accurate contigs. ContigExtender is effective for extending contigs significantly in in silico synthesized and real metagenomics datasets.

Workshop on population and metagenomics analysis @ NERC

Sun, 01 Dec 2013 14:25:45 -0600

Workshop Overview

A ten-day workshop taking place between 25 February - 6 March 2014 providing detailed hands-on training for population and meta-genomics analysis for researchers with little or no background in mathematics or computing.

Venue: Dartington Hall, Totnes, Devon (nearest train station - Totnes)

Times: 25 February - 6th March 2014.

Arrival evening of Tuesday 25 February 2014. Departure morning of 6th March 2014. The course itself will take place 9am-12pm, 2pm-5pm and on some evenings 7pm-10pm everyday 26 February-5th March. Students are expected to attend the entire course.

Contact: research-events@exeter.ac.uk

Registration

The course itself is free of charged and is funded by a Professional Postgraduate Development Award from NERC.

A total of 30 funded places are available which cover the costs of accommodation and food, but not the cost of transportation to/from the venue.

An additional 10 places are available for participants from industry. The cost of accommodation and meals will need to be covered by the participants.

You should register your interest by 31 December 2013. Participants will be informed by 10th January 2014 as to whether they have been selected. Please note that preference will be given to researchers funded by NERC.

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.
