I still receive a fair number of PMs and emails in response to this posting which means people are interested in a tool that converts a FASTA formatted file along with a read alignment file from ELAND or similar to ACE for viewing with Eagleview. I am releasing the script I wrote as source code for anyone to tinker with as a sourceforge project. Feel free to make it more usable. There are issues with the script as it is which I can describe in more detail if people are interested.

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
