DESCRIPTION

Sandy is a bioinformatics tool that provides a simple engine to simulate next-generation sequencing for genomic and transcriptomic data. Simulated data works as experimental control - a key step to optimize NGS analysis - in comparison to hypothetical models. Sandy is a straightforward, easy-to-use, fast and highly customizable tool that generates reads requiring only a FASTA file as input. Sandy can simulate single/paired-end reads from both whole exome sequencing and RNA-seq as if produced from the most used second and third-generation sequencing platforms. Sandy’s reads can be simulated with genetic variations such as SNVs, indels and gene fusions. For customization purposes, Sandy have built-in (native) databases that can be easily extended with varying gene/transcript expression profiles, sequencing errors, sequencing coverages and genomic variations.
