    I just bought a Mac Pro for NGS analysis.
    2 6 core processors, the slowest ones
    lowest amount of ram they allowed
    1tb hd
    no monitor

    Then I bought
    64GB ram package from OWC
    512 GB SSD (you'll need sled adapter for the MacPro)
    19" Asus Monitor

    Total Cost $5000

    OSX will only utilize up to 96 gb of ram, but I think I should have bought the 128kit anyway. If you bootcamp linux or windows 64bit then you can utilize all 128gb

    Other than that, I'm pretty happy with it. Low amount of hassle to to start messing around with data sets, then the big jobs can be sent to a high performance computing center

      Recent Developments in Metagenomics
      by seqadmin





      Metagenomics has improved the way researchers study microorganisms across diverse environments. Historically, studying microorganisms relied on culturing them in the lab, a method that limits the investigation of many species since most are unculturable1. Metagenomics overcomes these issues by allowing the study of microorganisms regardless of their ability to be cultured or the environments they inhabit. Over time, the field has evolved, especially with the advent...

      Understanding Genetic Influence on Infectious Disease
      by seqadmin




      During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

      Jean-Laurent Casanova, M.D., Ph.D., Professor at Rockefeller University, is a leading expert in this crossover between genetics and infectious...
