Genome Sequencing (Bioinformatics II)

This course content included the graph theory, the use of brujin graphs algorithms to assemble genomes from single reads and pair-reads, and the process to sequece genome using next-generation sequencing (NGS), and the use of brute force algorithms to sequence proteins such as antibiotics from antimicrobial-resistant bacteria. It also included the use of the bioinformatic software Galaxy to assemble the genome of a sample Staphylococcus from a fastq file into contigs and scaffolds using the SPAdes genome assembler and also to evaluate the quality of this assemblies using QUAST. Completed this course with honors.
