What’s the Answer? (Next-Generation Sequencing -NGS- courses)

17 May, 2012 (09:00) | What's the Answer? | By: Trey

BioStar is a site for asking, answering and discussing bioinformatics questions. We are members of thecommunity and find it very useful. Often questions and answers arise at BioStar that are germane to our readers (end users of genomics resources). Every Thursday we will be highlighting one of those questions and answers here in this thread. You [...]

Must see: Richard Resnick TEDxBoston talk

Have some NGS SAM/BAM files? get a GUI interface

21 January, 2011 (16:36) | Genomics Resource News, New Resource | By: Trey

A recent paper on a GUI interface introduces SAMMate. As the paper states: With just a few mouse clicks, SAMMate will provide biomedical researchers easy access to important alignment information stored in SAM/BAM files. You might want to check it out if you have Next Generation Sequencing data in the form of BAM/SAM files. A [...]

Next-Generation Analysis Tools

17 August, 2010 (16:01) | Genomics Resource News, New Resource | By: Trey

MassGenomics points to a new structured programming framework for analyzing NGS data: A Foundation for Next-Generation Analysis Tools, the GATK (Genome Analysis Toolkit) and points to a few tools that use it. While I’m at it, let me remind you of a NGS discussion group, GBrowse help to visualize NGS data and Galaxy has a NGS [...]
