Creators of software widely used in computational biology discuss the factors that contributed to their success

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...

Python is a general-purpose language, which means it can be used to build just about anything, which will be made easy with the right tools/libraries. Professionally, Python is great for backend web development, data analysis, artificial...

Registrations are now open for the 2019 Summer Bioinformatics Training program at Amity University, Kolkata.

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...
