A wave of technologies transformed sequencing over a decade ago into the high-throughput era, demanding research in new computational methods to analyze this data. The applications of sequencing have continually expanded. The Eighth RECOMB Satellite Workshop on Massively Parallel Sequencing (RECOMB-Seq) brings together leading researchers in computational genomics and genomic biology to discuss emerging frontiers in algorithm development for massively parallel sequencing data. The emphasis of all contributed work will be on applying statistical and algorithmic approaches to improve sequence data management, analysis, and interpretation.
Short Talk and Poster Submission Guidelines
We invite you to submit for a short talk or poster for presentation at RECOMB-Seq, 2018. Submissions for short talks will be given the opportunity to present their work in a 10 minute talk. A select set of posters will be given the opportunity to announce their poster and invite discussion during a lightning poster session. Short and lightning talks will be announced March 1.
- Short talks Regular abstracts and 1-2 pages describing original work, including software applications.
- Posters Original work for research in a broad range of algorithmic development for sequence analysis. Lightning talks are one slide.
List of Topics
- Read mapping for second and third generation sequencing technologies.
- Techniques for managing (e.g., data compression) and visualizing massive amount of sequencing data.
- Discovery and genotyping of genomic variants, including SNPs, indels, and structural variants.
- Local and de novo sequence assembly.
- RNA sequencing (RNAseq) methods, including the analysis of RNA expression and novel transcript assembly.
- Methods for emerging sequencing technologies, such as single-cell or single molecule real time sequencing.
