SLIMS is a powerful and user-friendly open source web application that provides all members of a laboratory with an interface to view, edit, and create sample information. SLIMS aims to simplify common laboratory tasks with tools such as a user-friendly shopping cart for subjects, samples and containers that easily generates reports, shareable lists, and plate designs for genotyping.
SAMPLE is designed to identify regions that are linked to a recessive disease by analysing genotype data from the parents and unaffected sibs of affected individuals. Since this analysis does not use data from affected patients, it is suited to the identification of lethal recessive genes, when the patients may have died before DNA samples could be obtained.
DNC-MIX models the distribution of the gene expression profile of a test sample as a mixture, with each component characterizing the expression levels in a class, and assigns a class label to each test sample
Rarefy is a C++ tool to facilitate sequencing study design using family samples by selecting informative families and individuals from a sample. It takes account pedigree structure and calculates an informative score for each individual to evaluate the potential of carrying trait-influencing rare variants. Rarefy has been used for selecting individuals in Minnesota Twins substance abuse whole-genome sequencing project and SardiNia deep sequencing project.
BAFRegress is a software that detects and estimates sample contamination using B allele frequency data from Illumina genotyping arrays using a regression model.
