BiATA brought up together over 400 scientists this year!
The fourth international conference “Bioinformatics: from Algorithms to Applications” (BiATA2020) moved online this year and was accompanied by a 2-day workshop on metagenomic data analysis. All pre-recorded talks are available online and can be found on BiATA2020 website.
We thank all speakers for presenting their great work and looking forward to the next year!
And congratulations on this fantastic event to its main organizers from our laboratory Alla Lapidus and Anton Korobeynikov, who made it happen!
Meet our new product coronaSPAdes!
We are delighted to present novel SPAdes assembler mode — coronaSPAdes, created by our researchers Anton Korobeynikov and Dmitry Meleshko. CoronaSPAdes allows to assemble full-length coronaviridae genomes from the transcriptomic and metatranscriptomic data. For more details visit coronaSPAdes official page.
We hope that coronaSPAdes will accelerate the ongoing coronavirus research!

metaSPAdes in the latest MGnify pipeline!
EMBL-EBI presented the latest version of the MGnify 5 pipeline, which now uses metaSPAdes for all metagenome assemblies. Check out new version at EMBL-EBI website here. More detailed information on the latest release can be found in the original paper.
Congratulations to Anton Korobeynikov and all members of our laboratory, who is taking part in this project! Looking forward to new great results in this collaboration!
This work was supported by RFBR # 18-54-74004, joint grant with EMBL.
First complete genome sequence of SARS-CoV-2 from Russia
First complete genome sequence of coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 from a Russian patient was sequenced by the scientific group from Smorodintsev Research Institute of Influenza in collaboration with members of our laboratory Michael Rayko and Dmitry Antipov. The sequence, named hCoV-19/Russia/StPetersburg-3524/2020, is available via GISAID.
