http://www.broadinstitute.org/genome_bio/siphy/

Software that implements rigorous statistical tests to detect bases under selection from a multiple alignment data. It takes full advantage of deeply sequenced phylogenies to estimate both unlikely substitution patterns as well as slowdowns or accelerations in mutation rates. It can be applied as an Hidden Markov Model (HMM), in sliding windows, or to specific regions.

http://neuralensemble.org/neo/

A Python package for representing electrophysiology data, together with support for reading a wide range of neurophysiology file formats, including Spike2, NeuroExplorer, AlphaOmega, Axon, Blackrock, Plexon, Tdt, and support for writing to a subset of these formats plus non-proprietary formats including HDF5. The goal of Neo is to improve interoperability between Python tools for analyzing, visualizing and generating electrophysiology data (such as OpenElectrophy, NeuroTools, G-node, Helmholtz, PyNN) by providing a common, shared object model. In order to be as lightweight a dependency as possible, Neo is deliberately limited to represention of data, with no functions for data analysis or visualization. Neo implements a hierarchical data model well adapted to intracellular and extracellular electrophysiology and EEG data with support for multi-electrodes (for example tetrodes). Neo's data objects build on the quantities package, which in turn builds on NumPy by adding support for physical dimensions. Thus Neo objects behave just like normal NumPy arrays, but with additional metadata, checks for dimensional consistency and automatic unit conversion.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmcloser/

Software that fills and closes the gaps present in scaffold assemblies, especially those generated by the de novo assembly of whole genomes with next-generation sequencing (NGS) reads. Unlike other gap-closing tools that use only NGS reads, GMcloser uses preassembled contig sets or long read sets as the sequences to close gaps and uses paired-end (PE) reads and a likelihood-based algorithm to improve the accuracy and efficiency of gap closure. The efficiency of gap closure can be increased by successive treatments with different contig sets.

http://www.bccancer.bc.ca/default.htm

A portal that provides a province-wide, population-based cancer control program for the residents of British Columbia and the Yukon. The BC Cancer Agency''s mandate covers the spectrum of cancer care, from prevention and screening, to diagnosis, treatment, and through to rehabilitation. The BC Cancer Agency''s mandate is driven by a three-fold mission: 1. To reduce the incidence of cancer; 2. To reduce the mortality rate of people with cancer; 3. To improve the quality of life of people living with cancer. This mission drives everything we do, including providing screening, diagnosis and care, setting treatment standards, and conducting research into causes of, and cures for, cancer. The BC Cancer Agency operates five regional cancer centers, providing assessment and diagnostic services, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and supportive care. Each of the BC Cancer Agency''s centers delivers cancer treatment based on provincial standards and guidelines established by the Agency. We work in partnership with communities to provide a network of chemotherapy clinics so patients can receive care closer to home. Research is an essential part of the BC Cancer Agency''s mission to not only find the causes of cancer, but to find better treatments for prolonged life and better quality of life. With direct links between the BC Cancer Agency''s physicians and researchers at our five centers, the Deeley Research Centre (located in Victoria) and the BC Cancer Agency''s Research Centre (located in Vancouver), we can quickly translate new discoveries into clinical applications. The BC Cancer Agency''s Research Centre includes eight specialty laboratories including the Genome Sciences Centre, and the Terry Fox Laboratory. The BC Cancer Foundation raises funds for cancer research and enhancements to care at the BC Cancer Agency.
