Hello Bioinformatics lovers,

Welcome, new subscribers. My mission is to help you to learn computational skills.

5 papers all computational biologists should read:

  1. A Quick Guide to Organizing Computational Biology Projects
  2. Ten Simple Rules for Reproducible Computational Research
  3. Ten simple rules for biologists learning to program
  4. Good enough practices in scientific computing
  5. Best Practices for Scientific Computing

Other resources I found useful this week:

  1. A new tool for doing gene set enrichment analysis for single-cell data borch.dev/uploads/screpertoire/articles/running_escape
  2. My old video on the differences between bioinformatics and computational biology
  3. Two resources for cloud computing: Google cloud for bioinformatics https://github.com/lynnlangit/gcp-for-bioinformatics
  4. AWS for bioinformatics https://github.com/lynnlangit/aws-for-bioinformatics
  5. A post from my friend Dean Lee What to expect in a biotech/pharma compbio interview
  6. nf-core/airrflow: an adaptive immune receptor repertoire analysis workflow employing the Immcantation framework
  7. Genomics intervals are everywhere, learn how to deal with them using bedtools (This is a must-have in your tool kits)https://bedtools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html and this one https://github.com/noamteyssier/bedrs, in R you use GenomicsRanges package.
  8. Single-cell allele-specific expression analysis reveals dynamic and cell-type-specific regulatory effects

Happy Learning!
