I need to align reads to contigs (both in fasta format). Preferably with visualization. I will appreciate suggestions of tools which can do this.

Hi ojy,
you can try use Sequencher (http://genecodes.com/?referrer=20yea...FYdH3godv0BYyQ), in this case you will have mapping and visualization (use the demo version see if it fits your needs).
Another approach is to turn your reads from fasta to fastq (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FASTQ_format),just stick them (reads) quality of 30 for each base and then you can use aligners for NGS (such as bowtie (http://bowtie-bio.sourceforge.net/index.shtml), bwa (http://bio-bwa.sourceforge.net/bwa.shtml) and then visualize your results with IGV-viewer (http://www.broadinstitute.org/igv/v1.2).

Code:bowtie-build -f contigs.fa contig_bowtie bowtie --sam -f contig_bowtie reads.fa

I use Bowtie as gringer suggested.
Then Tablet to view the sam file. It shows it as a big alignment that you can scroll though.
If you're a biologist (like me) it's worth seeing if your uni has an administered central bio-informatics server that you can use. Having someone else install everything is a massive help.

The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...-

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-
