Our research group is primarily focused on the analysis of whole genome sequence data to identify genetic variation (primarily structural variation) and examine their potential functional impact in disease phenotypes. We are particularly interested...
The laboratory is focused on the discovery and analysis of structural variation (SVs) from genomic sequence data. As part of the 1000 Genomes Project and other endeavors, we have helped produce initial fine-scale maps using a variety of SV discovery...
faculty.washington.edu - Beagle is a software package that performs genotype calling, genotype phasing, imputation of ungenotyped markers, and identity-by-descent segment detection.
Beagle version 4.1 has a more accurate genotype phasing algorithm and a very fast and...
sourceforge.net - CViT - Chromosome Viewing Tool. A collection of Perl scripts that enable quick visualizations of features on linkage groups, psuedochromosomes or cytogenetic maps. Intended for whole-genome views of data but can be used to create images of single...
They are based in the Department of Genetics at the University of Cambridge.
The research covers diverse areas of evolutionary biology, and molecular evolution in particular. It combines theoretical and empirical approaches, and particularly...

Bergman Lab is actively engaged in the development and application of computational methods to improve the annotation of functional biological features in genome sequences....
The premise of Assassin's Creed is the reliving of other people's memories stored inside DNA. Well scientists have found that in mice, it actually happens! Anthony is joined by special guest and our friend Tara Long from Hard Science to explain how...
NCB is offering M.Phil and Ph.D programs in the area of Bioinformatics. The major goal of NCB is to promote quality training and research in the area of Bioinformatics. Bioinformatics originated as a cross-disciplinary field as the need for...
The goal of our research is to better understand the biology of microbial organisms of significant ecological, veterinary and medical importance.
To achieve this goal, our team combines the power of next generation DNA sequencing and...
