For human data, it would be essential to support BAM natively. By "natively", I mean to directly load BAM alignment without converting it to other formats. Most human alignments are available in BAM on NCBI ftp. It is awkward and inefficient to convert a compressed file of >100GB. In addition, tablet seems not supporting insertion in SAM/BAM probably because unlike ACE/CAF, the viewer must be able to compute padding by itself.
Except these, tablet looks great!Leave a comment:

this is very slick and unlike every other short-read viewer I have ever used it worked right out of the boxLeave a comment:

Tablet - Next Generation Sequence Assembly Visualization
Hi all,
Some of you may be aware of this already, but here at SCRI we've been working on producing a visualization tool for NGS assembly data called Tablet. Our main goal was to create something that's not only fast and provides nice visualizations, but also be both easy to use and easy to install.
Tablet was designed to aid our work here, which is primarily on plant data, but we've had some success loading in some human stuff too (just for fun obviously!).
We've attempted to get working parsers for a wide range of common formats (ace, afg, maq, soap) and we currently have experimental support for sam too (until we can get the Picard API working properly).
Please give it a try, and let us know what you think, either here, or by emailing us directly (there's an option within Tablet itself to do this). It's available in both 32 and 64bit versions, for all the usual suspects (Windows, OS X, Linux, Solaris), and can be downloaded from the following URL:
We also have a paper in advance (open) access with Bioinformatics, which is linked to from the above.
Tablet is still very much work in progress though, so do feel free to suggest any enhancements and improvements you'd like to see.

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...
