Just wanted to initiate some bioinfo discussions ... makes up a major chunk of this high throughput sequencing effort .. after getting the sequence

Any members here having experience with the data .. using it with some open access or in-house tools for mutation analysis, etc.

Moreover, issues with the huge amounts of data .. archival and computation issues

Hi
I'm new to this list as well. I would be very curious to know how people are thinking about dealing with the data sets from these machines. I was thinking of indexing to the UCSC Golden Path build 18, but heard a talk today from ABI suggesting that one should compare to more than one data set. What are other folk doing on the analysis side?

One other thing I am curious about - what do people think about the MINSEQE standard? I remember the initial discussions about MIAME and how much data really needs to be stored on an experiment. Over time it turned into a set of tools, databases and sample materials that folk can now use. Are there any projects out there that would implement the proposed MINSEQE standard?

Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing

by SEQadmin2

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...

From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data

by SEQadmin2

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.
