    NGS raw data urgently needed for student project processing

    Hello, I am giving a lecture on genomic analysis and I have to do a research project with the students starting from raw NGS sequences, so they can assemble, annotate, etc... Does anyone know where can I get freely available sequences (with no restrictions of academic usage) that are not already processed so they can write up a scientific paper of their research project without having any political issue?
    thank you very much
    it is kind of urgent

      Can you further define "raw"?

      You can find data from Illumina on this page: http://science.illumina.com/science/data_library.ilmn. I doubt there are any restrictions for use in teaching/academic pursuits (you probably can't publish a real paper).

          thank you very much, that's very helpful, however I was thinking of genomes of new strains or metagenomic data.

            You'll have a tough time finding freely-available pristine data that has never been used for anything. It makes little sense generate data on some new organism or community, and put it out for anyone to use in publications before actually using it yourself.

              Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
              by SEQadmin2


              I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.


              Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

              From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
              by SEQadmin2


              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.
