Symposium on Big Data Algorithms for Biology (May 31-June 1 2024) is now open for registration and abstract submission [Deadline: Apr 20] bdbio.in Join us for the engaging talks, poster presentations, and panel discussions in various topics of comp. biology

Our review paper on "Genome assembly in the telomere-to-telomere era" published online in Nature Reviews Genetics. It amazes me how much assembly has progressed in the past four years – often ~100X improvement in contiguity and base accuracy and with haplotypes and hard regions resolved!

We send our appreciation to the speakers, poster presenters, participants, student and staff volunteers who contributed to the resounding success of the BDBio 2024 held last week! IISc Bangalore IISc Computational and Data Sciences

Our recent work "Haplotype-aware sequence alignment to pangenome graphs" is now online at Genome Research (RECOMB'24 issue). It introduces new algorithms and complexity results for the problem. Led by Ghanshyam Chandra doi.org/10.1101/gr.279…

Pangene now published in Bioinformatics: doi.org/10.1093/bioinf…. In addition to showcasing applications (see the 17q21.31 inversion below), we also reviewed the theoretical formulation of bidirected graphs and discussed the definition and the finding of "bubbles" in such graphs.

Happy to see our method for T2T genome assembly published! It addresses an important limitation of string graph, that is, the contained reads. Led by Sudhanva Kamath "Telomere-to-telomere assembly by preserving contained reads" doi.org/10.1101/gr.279…

New method speeds up genome alignment of complete and near-complete genome assemblies in minimap2. Can also be useful for faster read mapping Github: github.com/at-cg/mm2-plus DOI: doi.org/10.1101/2024.1… Led by Ghanshyam Chandra, collab with Sanchit Misra (I am hiring) Mohd Vasimuddin Intel
