NGS Blogs

nilshomer · 05-08-2010, 03:19 PM

I follow a bunch of Life Science, NGS, and Bioinformatics blogs (see below). I am always interesting in finding new blogs related to these fields. Please post your favorite blogs here so we can collect a good set of NGS blogs.

Here are a few of my favorites:

I need my fix. Do you have any to suggest?

2007lab · 05-11-2010, 07:23 AM

I would like to recommend:
http://gettinggeneticsdone.blogspot.com/ (Mostly GWAS)
http://www.genomicslawreport.com/ (Ethical implications/ Law -Genomics, good coverage on the BRCA story(Myriad vs ACLU)

james hadfield · 05-11-2010, 01:04 PM

I like many of the suggestions so far and would add these as well...

http://www.politigenomics.com - nice post on Breast Cancer
http://zorrosgenome.wordpress.com - just how much does an Illumina cost to run?
nextgenseq.blogspot.com
http://hpcinfo.com/ - high performance computing, we all need one of those!

bioinfosm · 05-13-2010, 10:08 AM

Hey, this is a great resource.. thanks!

A few more to add:

And after reading the latest entries for all those blogs you still have time left to do some work? ;-)

They usually have one or two posts a month and I only reads the ones that pique my interest. I am finishing up my thesis so I need some distractions

ECO · 05-15-2010, 02:56 PM

Hmmm...Their RSS feeds could be good fodder for Newsbot.

Maybe we need an NGS blog network?

KevinLam · 05-16-2010, 11:11 PM

a blog network sounds fun.

I just use google reader for simplicity and igoogle.

I guess I can publish my reader rss feeds if anyone is interested.

Michael.James.Clark · 05-17-2010, 03:58 PM

I started a new blog called Mendelian Disorder at http://mendeliandisorder.blogspot.com

No promises that it's all about NGS, but I will try to put as much useful/interesting stuff as possible.

DNA Sorcerer · 09-23-2010, 07:47 AM

just came across http://snpgenotyping.info

That's sound good for so much blogs focus on bioinformatics and NGS

bbsinfo · 04-13-2011, 08:17 AM

If you are asked to pick the best blog from all these choices, what would it be?
Thanks

I must admit, that is a frustrating question indeed. All of them are of high quality, so check them out!

samanta · 08-10-2011, 02:33 PM

We started a new blog at http://homolog.us

Please let us now, how we can improve ourselves.

Open the comments, I'm following.

ETHANol · 08-10-2011, 11:58 PM

I've started a blog. It will be my perspective on biology. My perspective being a wet lab guy that has mostly studied epigenetics, chromatin structure, transcriptional regulation and how these things effect biological pathways. And of course I'll be posting on how NGS has finally made bioinformatics cool.

BTW, great list. Reading blogs is great.
