This oneday will provide forum for indepth presentations of the methods and discussion among the scientists working in this field. We will also have keynotetalk by John McPherson. NGS platforms present not only new challenges, but also new opportunities, not only due to the different sequencing methodologies The problem of short read assembly and coassembly is equally important, as solving this problem promises to drastically lower the of sequencing new genome.. While the promise of next generation sequencing NGS technologies has become reality, computational methods for assembly, alignment, and variation detection using such short reads are still in their infancy.

This results in much shorter reads down to 2550 bp, but the overall throughput is enormous, with each run producing billions of basepairs of sequence data. Short reads can alsopotentially be used for inferring copy number variants, but the methods for copy number detection using sequence data have not been developed. While the promise of next generation sequencing NGS technologies has become reality, computational methods for assembly, alignment, and variation detection using such short reads are still in their infancy.

The problem of short read assembly and coassembly is equally important, as solving this problem promises to drastically lower the of sequencing new genome.

For example, SNP discovery from Sanger sequencing reads is reasonably well understood however, the situation is very different in the case of NGS, where error rates are higher to those of Sanger and alignment of short reads to reference sequences is complicated by the length of the reads. Because it is possible to infer genome rearrangements, however this will require new approaches as many reads will map to multiple locations in the genome.
