This webinar was presented live on Feb. 24, 2021 from Madison, Wisconsin, USA. In this 1-hour webinar, Brian Walsh PhD (DNASTAR Sales Manager and Scientific Lead for MegAlign Pro) shows how to rock phylogenetic tree creation in MegAlign Pro 17.2.1. MegAlign Pro has many exciting new features and enhancements, especially with respect to phylogenetic trees. This webinar shows how to: • Reroot a tree on a selected branch or for the most balanced appearance. • Organize sequences on the phylogenetic tree by depth or distance… or to sort sequences in the alignment to reflect the order of sequences in the tree. • Apply attention-grabbing colors and drawing styles to prepare your tree for publication or presentation. • Use bootstrap analysis when computing a tree. • Choose and display a wide variety of distance metrics on the Distance Table, including the much-requested “% Identity” metric. • Optimize styles and layouts, then save and apply them to future projects. • Search for and navigate to specific sequences by name. • Save time by using the new quick-access tools in each MegAlign Pro view.

This webinar was presented live from Madison, Wisconsin USA on Dec. 9th, 2020. DNASTAR's Senior Product Manager, Matt Keyser, does a live demo showing many of the new features in Lasergene's SeqMan Ultra 17.2, including Sanger sequence assembly, ABI sequence trimming, exporting images of the alignment, and much more. For more information, or to request a fully-functional free trial of SeqMan Ultra 17.2, please visit www.dnastar.com.

RNA-Seq data analysis can prove to be a challenge for many researchers as the applications for this technology are quite broad. But never fear! In this 1-hour webinar, Carl-Erik Tornqvist, PhD (DNASTAR’s Manager of Sales and Client Support) will demonstrate how to use Lasergene Genomics to get the whole picture of your RNA-Seq data. Learn how to: • Align RNA-Seq data to a reference genome in SeqMan NGen. • Perform statistical analysis of differential gene expression using EdgeR or DESeq2. • Investigate gene ontology data and connect it to your experimental results. • Use ArrayStar’s advanced filtering and quick gene sets, then view the results in customizable, interactive tables, heat maps, scatterplots, and more. We will also have a Q&A discussion at the end of the live demo. The webinar will be hosted by Anne Stover, DNASTAR's Digital Marketing Manager.

Do you have whole genome NGS or long read sequencing data, but aren’t sure where to begin with assembly and analysis? Have you tried different assembly programs without satisfactory results? If so, this webinar is for you! This webinar was presented live on August 5, 2020 and features an in-depth look at different assembly strategies for genomic sequencing data. DNASTAR Senior Product Manager, Matthew Keyser helps you determine when to use different reference-based and de novo approaches, and how to perform a variety of polishing and correction techniques to close your genome. After assembly, see how to close gaps and prepare your genome sequence for annotation and downstream analysis. This webinar includes discussion, Q&A, and a live software demo of the newest assembly and downstream analysis tools in Lasergene 17.1.

In this webinar, presented live on July 15, 2020, you will learn about the latest features and analysis tools available in Lasergene 17.1. This webinar includes a live demo of features for molecular biology and genomics research, including: - Enhancements to phylogenetic trees in MegAlign Pro, including RAxML for Maximum Likelihood inference calculations - Expanded sequence and alignment editing capabilities in MegAlign Pro - A new batch cloning workflow in SeqBuilder Pro, for automated virtual cloning of multiple fragments into one or more vectors - De novo assembly of PacBio and Oxford Nanopore long read sequencing data - Faster Sanger assembly options in SeqMan Ultra - Enhanced variant reporting and multi-sample visualizations - A new retrovirus integration workflow, which automates the precise locating of prophage and retrovirus insertion sites in the host genome during alignment The webinar was presented by Senior Manager of Product Development, Matt Keyser, and Senior Marketing Manager, Katie Maxfield.
