NESCENT GENOME CURATION WORKING GROUP

The objectives of the project are to bring together software engineers and biologists to design and implement essential software for answering questions in evolutionary genomics, and to offer researchers the training material to be able to efficiently conduct these studies using both existent and newly developed tools... constructing a genomics curation curriculum for researchers of any career stage... The Genome Train seeks to educate and empower researchers with an understanding of the process of genome sequencing. We present the process of automated annotation and manual curation of a newly sequenced genome, both in ideal conditions and in the current state of affairs.
