I upgraded my non-critical home laptop to Maverics and didn't have any issues yet. I don't use MacPorts however.. -
Because on my heavy reliance on MacPorts, I'm waiting for verification that MacPorts works with Mavericks. (I have not checked since Friday).Leave a comment:

OSX Mavericks
Hey guys,
Has anyone updated any of their Macs that they use for bioinformatics to Mavericks yet? We have a Mac Pro running 10.6.8 that we use for the heavy data analysis that we don't do on our linux clusters, as well as some iMacs that we use for lighter analyses and I'm considering whether or not it's worth it to upgrade them. The AppNap and compressed memory features in particular seem like they could give those systems a boost and help extend their usable life span.
Given that the upgrade is free, it's very tempting to just go ahead and try it, but my concern is that there will be unknown issues with some of the programs that we rely on for our analyses. Figure it was worth checking to see if others have upgraded yet and what their impressions were before I try it for myself.

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...05-06-2024, 07:48 AM -
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...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM
