Pangenomics in the Cloud hackathon, March 25-27, 2019

We are pleased to announce the first ever pangenomics, graphs and haplotypes hackathon.

From March 25-27, 2019, the NCBI will help run a bioinformatics hackathon in Santa Cruz, California, hosted by the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC).  Potential topics include:

  • Building large scale graphs from pangenomes using several assembly methods
  • Simplification of mapping
  • Resolving haplotypes
  • Identification of population-specific structural variants
  • Defining haplotype-specific expression, visualization, and coordination with the GRC
