  <description><![CDATA[
<p>In the Genomic Microbiology Group of Prof. Tal Dagan at the Institute<br />of Microbiology at Kiel University, Germany, a</p>

<p>Postdoc position (m/w/d)</p>

<p>in the field of computational evolutionary microbiology is available<br />for an initially limited period of 36 months at the earliest possible<br />date. The weekly working time corresponds to 100% of full employment<br />(If the legal requirements under collective bargaining law are met, the<br />tariff grouping is carried out up to pay scale 13 TV-L. The obligation<br />to teach amounts to 4 hours.</p>

<p>The Genomic Microbiology Group research interests are focused on<br />microbial genome evolution with an emphasis on the study of lateral gene<br />transfer. In our research we use both computational and experimental<br />approaches (see www.uni-kiel.de/genomik). The position offers the<br />opportunity to develop an independent research profile within the group<br />research focus. The successful applicant is expected to be involved<br />in teaching of bioinformatics and molecular evolution, including the<br />development of teaching materials (lectures/exercises/short videos).</p>

<p>Your profile:<br />· Doctoral or PhD degree in Molecular Evolution, Bioinformatics or<br />related fields.<br />· Knowledge and experience in programming (e.g., Python) and<br />biostatistical analysis (e.g., with R or MatLab).<br />· Any of the following expertise is an advantage: the analysis of<br />genomic or transcriptomic data, phylogenetic reconstruction,<br />comparative genomics.<br />· Good oral and written communication skills in English.<br />· Ability to teach in German is an advantage (alternatively, an<br />indication to do so from the 2nd year on).<br />· Skills and motivation to communicate and interact with other<br />scientists.<br /> <br />The Christian-Albrechts-University sees itself as a modern and<br />cosmopolitan employer. We welcome your application regardless of your age,<br />gender, cultural and social background, religion, ideology, disability<br />or sexual identity. We promote equality of the sexes.</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>FYI, I've found it useful to use MUMmer to extract the specific changes that Racon makes, so I can evaluate them individually:</p><pre><code>minimap -t 24 assembly.fasta long_reads.fastq.gz | racon -t 24 long_reads.fastq.gz - assembly.fasta racon_assembly.fasta
nucmer -p nucmer assembly.fasta racon_assembly.fasta
show-snps -C -T -r nucmer.delta
</code></pre><p>This reports Racon's changes in a table. You can exclude indels with the&nbsp;<code>-I</code>&nbsp;option in&nbsp;<code>show-snps</code>.&nbsp;</p><p>This process (Racon -&gt; MUMmer -&gt; SNP table) solves the problem I originally raised in this issue. So as far as I'm concerned, you can close this issue (or keep it open if you still want to implement some kind of variant table).</p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Restarted my BioLinux ubuntu computer after an update, and when I logged back in, I noticed that all of my files went missing. Instead of Desktop folder, icons of all of my home folder are showed on desktop.</p><p>Then I thaught it migh be a problem of graphical display and I opened the terminal out of curiosity, and I found out that there is no ~/Desktop folder at all. What happened? What do I need to do?</p><p>Then I google the problem and found this is a very common problem after updates. To fix this problem, follow these steps:</p><p>You need to edit the ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs file, and make sure the contents of the file are like the following:<br /><br />XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop"<br />XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/Downloads"<br />XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/"<br />XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR="$HOME/Share"<br />XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="$HOME/Documents"<br />XDG_MUSIC_DIR="$HOME/Music"<br />XDG_PICTURES_DIR="$HOME/Pictures"<br />XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="$HOME/Videos"<br /><br />Then restart nautilus:<br /><br />killall nautilus<br /><br />or<br /><br />nautilus -q<br /><br />Then, open nautilus via Unity menu (press the Super key) or using the run command (Alt+F2)</p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Setting python version as default on Linux]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>If you have a later version than 2.6 you'll need to set 2.6 as the default Python. Later versions would be 2.7 and 3.1; see what you have by typing</p><pre>python -V
</pre><p><span>at the terminal. For purposes of this example we'll assume you have 3.1 installed. You'll next need to execute the following commands:</span></p><p>&nbsp;</p><pre>sudo apt-get install python2.6 idle-python2.6
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3.1 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python2.6 10
sudo update-alternatives --config python
</pre><p>This last command will allow you to choose which version of python to use by default. If you have done everything above correctly, python2.6 should already be set as the default. If it is not, choose it to be the default. From now on, running python should start version 2.6.</p><div><p>Undoing These Changes</p><p>In some cases (e.g., installing or updating certain packages), you'll get an error message if you've run the commands above. To update these packages, you'll have to temporarily undo these changes. Here's how to do that:</p><pre>sudo update-alternatives --remove-all python
sudo ln -s python3.1 /usr/bin/python
</pre><p>Once you're done updating these packages, execute the commands at the top to set python2.6 as the default again.</p></div>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Tools and Method for Haplotype phasing !]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<div>Huge amounts of genotype data are being produced with recent technological advances, both from increasingly&nbsp; comprehensive and inexpensive genome-wide SNP microarrays and from ever more accessible whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing methods. The vast amount of knowledge contained in these results, however, is best&nbsp; exploited through phased haplotypes, which classify the alleles co-located on the same chromosome. Since sequence and SNP array data normally take the form of unphased genotypes, one does not specifically observe which of the two parental chromosomes, or haplotypes, falls on a specific allele. Fortunately, new advances in both computational and laboratory methods promise improved determination of haplotype phase.
