Can someone help me with steps on how to install meraculous genome assembler? I used their manual but I keep having this error "undefined reference to pthreads...".

Pthreads itself is not used by Meraculous but it's something that your installation of Boost can be linked to, and that sometimes causes problems. What version are you using? v.4.0.4.1 should be more pthreads-friendy -
Am using boost 1.57.0. What is v.4.0.4.1?Comment

Sorry, I meant 2.0.4.1, and that's the version of Meraculous. Your boost version should be ok, although we've only tested it with v. 1.50.0. The issue is really about how your Boost is installed. If it relies on pthread libraries then older versions of Meraculous (or rather the installer files) didn't know how to deal with them.Comment

Thank you. I'll try those versions of Meraculous and Boost.Comment

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM -
Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

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.
