Excellent work by GSoC Bioinformatics students

Google summer of code 2016 has just came to an end. Thanks to our host organisations Open Genome Informatics and Open Bioinformatics Foundation, we’ve had a productive summer with two excellent students. Both students wrote blog posts summarizing their work.

• Hiten Chowdhary created novel BLAST result visualization methods for SequenceServer. He wrote an overview of his work.

• After reviewing in detail the strengths and weaknesses of bash, make, snakemake and nextflow as biological analysis pipelines, Julian Mazzitelli created Bionode waterwheel, a tool demonstrating the capabilities of javascript streams for real-time analysis of biological data. Read more about how it works.

  

As the finishing touches are implemented, we look forward to being able to deploy the work of these students into production releases of SequenceServer and Bionode.
