What do Eagle pipelines do?

December 17th, 2010 by Richard Holland

Eagle Genomics can produce a vast array of genomic data analysis pipelines each tailored to your specific needs. Our pipeline design and construction service is as hands-on or as hands-off as you require – if you have a specific workflow in mind, we can code it, but if you have a general question you just…

European Conference on Computational Biology, Ghent ( ECCB10)

September 17th, 2010 by Nick

In a couple of weeks I shall be attending the ECCB10 conference in Ghent. I have just been reading through the talks and needless to say it looks interesting. I shall be presenting a poster this time, on "An Ensembl-based pipeline for microRNA prediction and expression profiling using Next Generation Sequencing data" I've already described  this…

An Ensembl-based pipeline for microRNA prediction and expression profiling using Next Generation Sequencing data

August 16th, 2010 by Nick

Further to my last post about my visit to the UK Next Generation Sequencing conference in Nottingham last week, I have now uploaded my talk which you can see below.  It was a 20min talk describing a pipeline we have created for predicting novel miRNA using Next Generation Sequencing Data.  If you have any questions…

UK Next Generation Sequencing Conference in Nottingham

August 13th, 2010 by Nick

Well it has been a busy first day of the UK Next Gen Sequencing meeting. As well as some informative talks on more convential NGS topics, such as library preparations, assembly strategies and SNP discovery  using NGS, there was also some interesting presentations on some more unusual application of NGS, such as for determining the…

Next Generation Sequencing conference in Nottingham, UK

July 26th, 2010 by Nick

I shall be attending a next generation sequencing conference in Nottingham in August and hopefully presenting a talk. The talk would describe nicely a project that I have been involved over the last month or so.  I've just written an abstract for this talk, so rather than describe it all again I have included it here:…
