So what is the update with this project https://github.com/nh13/samtools . Is it still faster than multi-threaded version of samtools ? Is this going to be a good substitute for Goby and Cram ?

Has there been any success on mpileup speedup ? Is the parallelization by pthreads or MPI ?Comment

Is the bcftools that come with samtools also multithreaded ?Comment

Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.
The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
