Hands-On Assembly of DNA Sequencing Reads as a Gateway to Bioinformatics
The scale of genomic sequencing data and the complexity of bioinformatic algorithms make it difficult for students to develop a concrete understanding of assembling complete genomes from millions of short DNA sequences. We present a hands-on activity where students explore the genome assembly proces...
