From September 25-27, 2017, NCBI will help with a bioinformatics hackathon at the University of Pittsburgh. The hackathon will focus on advanced bioinformatics analysis of next generation sequencing data, proteomics and metadata. See here for an article on NCBI-style hackathons.
HSLS is pleased to announce that the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Hackathon is coming to the University of Pittsburgh on September 25-27, 2017! HSLS is working with numerous groups across campus to organize this event, including the Center for Research Computing (CRC), Computing Services and Systems Development (CSSD), School of Computing and Information (SCI), and University Library System (ULS).
Researchers have been finding variants and mutations using Sequencher software for a long time. Sequencher’s powerful algorithms and ease of use have made it a staple for genetic researchers all over the world. One of the earliest studies linking the Human Mutator Gene Homolog MSH2 to colon cancer featured Sequencher as the software of choice.

Massively parallel RNA sequencing, commonly known as RNA-seq, provides a more detailed picture of transcriptomes compared to microarray profiling.
