    SimWalk2

    For anyone that may be using SimWalk (v2.91) software, I would like to know if you have encountered similar behavior.

    I have run mistyping analyses on each chromosome of a mammalian genome with the goal to create an output file that displays problematic genotypes within our pedigree. For about half of the chromosomes I do indeed see the output I want, and the results seem reasonable. For the other half, the output file is empty, with a log file stating that the run ended successfully. Additionally, the observed recombination distances between markers in the problematic runs are all listed as 0 (which is not reflective of the actual data). This is the only difference I see between runs that work and runs that do not. I've tried many different things, mainly involving messing with the parameters file, but have still not been able to correct this.

    For people that have used this software, I am happy to clarify anything that I glossed over here.

    Thanks!

    Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
    by SEQadmin2



    Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

    Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
    by SEQadmin2



    Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

    There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

    Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by GATTACAT
    Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.
