The European Union’s ITN initiative provides funding and hosting opportunities for Ph.D. students from around the world. As previously noted in one of our earlier posts, the ITN brings together some of the most prestigious institutions in the European Union to work on innovative research projects. Today we are pleased to present you the LongTREC project. Its primary objective is
Once again we are pleased to announce the latest update of OmicsBox 3.0. The whole BioBam team has worked to bring the new version of the BioBam bioinformatics solution to life. We proudly present the Genetic Variation Module as the highlight of OmicsBox 3.0. This module enables variant calling, filtering, and annotation, as well as the association of genetic variations
This January, the BioBam team had the pleasure of attending the Plant and Animal Genome Conference in San Diego, California. This international event is a MUST for everyone working in the Plant and Animal Genomics space. For us, coming back to PAG after the Covid break was a great opportunity to get re-connected to the community and catch up with
Most transcripts assembled from eukaryotic and prokaryotic RNA-Seq data are expected to code for proteins. The most practical procedure to identify likely coding transcripts is a sequence homology search, such as by BLASTX, against sequences from well-annotated and related species. Predicting coding regions is crucial to determine the molecular role that transcripts play in the cell. Unfortunately, such well-annotated nearby
In this article, you will find simple and quick instructions to create your OmicsBox account. Please follow each step of the process and in case any doubt or error may arise, email our support team at support@omicsbox.com. How to Sign-Up in OmicsBox: Step 1: Start Up OmicsBox to activate the software Introduce the Subscription Key you received in your
On Ubuntu Linux and other distributions, OmicsBox might not start. This can happen due to an incompatibility of JavaFX in combination with Wayland and GTK3. This blog describes a possible workaround for this problem. Step 1: Open a terminal window and check if the following command gives you “wayland”. If it gives you “x11” the OmicsBox is probably not starting
We are very proud to be part of the European Project INTERCEPT-MDS, a highly competitive international training network (ITN) that seeks to advance cancer research and have a high impact on future generations of researchers. In this article, you can learn more about ITNs in general and this initiative in particular. What is an ITN? An ITN is a training
What is a Gene Venn Diagram? A Gene Venn Diagram is a graphical representation in the form of overlapping circles widely used to represent relationships among different genes (IDs). High-throughput sequencing technologies generate large amounts of data sets coming from multiomics studies. At the transcriptomic level, differential expression analysis appears to be a highly important field of study in bioinformatics
At BioBam, we are strongly committed to ensuring that all of our bioinformatics solutions comply with the highest data security standards. We aim to provide the highest security for our customer’s data, which we store and protect. BioBam can proudly announce that we have achieved our first ISO 27001 certification for Information Security and Privacy in 2020.
