This relates to the reference genome assembly of the humble guinea pig (Cavia porcellus) undertaken by the human genomics group at ESR (yes the irony I know). Building a better reference genome assembly for the wee guinea pig is an attempt to improve the genetic analyses in studies on premature birth using the guinea pig as a model organism. Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) pore-c data.

• The raw data for this project is stored/backed up at /mnt/cavia_porcellus/genome_sequencing/guinea_pore_c/ on ESR's research network (Leviathan)

• This analysis was for the most part carried out at /NGS/scratch/KSCBIOM/HumanGenomics/guinea_pore_c/ on ESR's production network
• A minimal version of the analyses were stored/backed up at /NGS/clinicalgenomics/archive/2022/results/guinea_pore_c/ on ESR's production network
