Schedule details will evolve as we go.

References:  Here is a sampling of the literature on genome assembly using "Next Generation Sequencing." If you find other interesting articles, please share them.

Most links below take you to PubMed, the NIH bibliographic database. Usually, but counterintuitively, from a PubMed abstract you click the icon of the publisher (or sometimes the icon saying "UW article online") to get to the actual article.

Journal access: Some of the journals and articles cited below are completely open access, or are freely available via PubMed Central (look for the "Free in PMC" icon).  Electronic access to other cited articles is generally free from on-campus IP addresses.  For off-campus access, follow the "[offcampus]" links or look at the UW library "proxy server" instructions.  Let me know if none of these work for you.
