Welcome to the Northern Bioinformatics User Group (Northern BUG). We have regular Northern BUG meetings (currently supported by The Genetics Society), held every few months somewhere in the North of England. The meetings are intended to forge connections between North of England bioinformaticians and to figure out how best to handle high throughput data, particularly from sequencing platforms such as Illumina, PacBio and Oxford Nanopore.
