Since the introduction of next-generation DNA sequencers the rapid increase in [[Sequencing|sequencer]] throughput, and associated drop in costs, has resulted in more than a dozen human [[Genomics|genomes]] being resequenced over the last few years. These efforts are merely a prelude for a future in which genome resequencing will be commonplace for both biomedical research and clinical applications. The dramatic increase in sequencer output strains all facets of computational infrastructure, especially databases and query interfaces. The advent of cloud computing, and a variety of powerful tools designed to process petascale datasets, provide a compelling solution to these ever increasing demands.

In this work, we present the [[SeqWare]] Query Engine which has been created using modern cloud computing technologies and designed to support databasing information from thousands of genomes. Our backend implementation was built using the highly scalable, NoSQL HBase database from the Hadoop project. We also created a web-based frontend that provides both a programmatic and interactive query interface and integrates with widely used genome browsers and tools.

"Ten simple rules for managing laboratory information"

Information is the cornerstone of research, from experimental data/metadata and computational processes to complex inventories of reagents and equipment. These 10 simple rules discuss best practices for leveraging laboratory information management systems (LIMS) to transform this large information load into useful scientific findings. The development of mathematical models that can predict the properties of biological systems is the holy grail of computational biology. Such models can be used to test biological hypotheses, guide the development of biomanufactured products, engineer new systems meeting user-defined specifications, and much more ...
