Any update on a possible merge with BioStar? They both seem to be continuing to cover very much the same material.

No updates. Istvan and I have had a couple of conversations that started and ended positively, but with no concrete actions as of yet. I know he is (or was until very recently) out of the country so perhaps things will pick up again.Originally posted by wjeck View Post
He has some good ideas about how to fund such a site, but that differ from how I've proceeded so far...so we have to reconcile those two things.

Pssst Eco: with this seqanswers forum down, is there much higher activity on the Q n A site? Hint for getting higher activity for a couple of days, so more people have feedback :P--

There was a bit higher traffic...but unfortunately in my quest to fix things I 1.) forgot I should've linked to the QnA site in my forum closure message, and 2.) broke the OSQA install.Originally posted by bioinfosm View Post
It would be an interesting experiment to try, but I'm still not convinced that the QnA can replace the forums.Comment

Hi ECO
I am trying to post some questions on seqanswers web site.......but I am unable to do so, could you please tell me how to start a new thread in this forum.Comment

I've been very pleased with the Q/A format on i.seqanswers.com. I don't think it completely replaces the forums, but most of the forum posts are questions of "how do I...", and the new format is much better suited for that.Comment

Hi Folks,
I have recently joint the forum, it is interesting. Actually i want to use Bowite Tool for 72 bp fragments of illumina read (microbail genome) assembling via windowXp based operating system. could any one guide me from very basics of window based installation and operation of this tool. Previously i have assemble a genome with DNAStar tool. Any body could help please. ?his/her help will be highly appreciated.Comment

Req ChIP seq protocol
Hi guys, i am krishh working on miRNAs regulation in human cells.
I am doing some ChIP-seq these days, i need some help from one you guys regarding protocol. What are the conditions has to be really work to reduce adapters contamination for this new illumina plat form.
thanks in advance ..Comment

Hi All,
I am new to this forum. I am working on validation of SNPs using NGS. I am not sure if this is the right place to post this. I am unable to make a new post. Can you please guide me on this?

I just signed up here and tried to ask a question, but there is no 'submit' button. There is a login/register button, but when I click that it seems to simply refresh the page. I think I need to reply to another thread in order to be able to ask a new question at all here. Is this true?Comment

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...06-18-2026, 07:11 AM -
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.
