So imagine I have a FASTA file from my assembly run on the Miseq. As I am completely unfamiliar with anything to do with downstream analysis or the various software, I don't know what to do with the data. So...what's your favorite thing to do with it? What should I do? I assume I need to put all the reads together somehow. So please fill me with your knowledge oh wise ones!

Your question is much too vague. Define the purpose of the study then seek out tools.

To be fair, I wasn't too sure of the goal myself. What we did was whole genome sequencing with a lot of genomes (E. coli, L. reuterii, and C. difficile). This was more of a trial thing to try out the MiSeq so there wasn't really a goal involved. Basically, I'm supposed to run it and play with the data to figure out what I can do with it.
I guess the questions are what is a good assembler for bacterial genomes? Right now I'm playing around with Velvet but I want to see what else is out there. So does anyone have any suggestions on what I could try out?
Also, anyone a big fan of mapping and wanting to rave about their favorite program for it?

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-
