I am new to the forum and need some initial recommendations. I will be receiving a data set from exome sequencing on an Illumina GA. What will be the best software to use for this initial data analysis...consider that I am new to NextGen sequencing. Thanks. and email to [email protected] would be appreciated if you have a great recommendation. I am understand that I should be able to upload shareware to do this.

What questions are you trying to ask? What level of expertise do you have?
Most of the shareware is going to demand a high level of bioinformatics expertise & a bit of patience to use correctly. There are some integrated systems out there (such as Galaxy) which I have not tried and can't comment on how hard they are to install or use. The software wiki here should have a lot of fodder for you to graze on to identify packages that might suit your needs.
If you don't have the time, patience or expertise to muck around with these, you might want to consider forking out $$$ (or pounds or euros or whatever) for one of the commercial packages. They will tend to be very polished.Comment

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...
