DNA and RNA sequencing is a core technology in biological and medical research The high throughput of these technologies and the consistent development of new experimental assays and biotechnologies demand the continuous development of methods to analyze the resulting data The RECOMB Satellite Workshop on Massively Parallel Sequencing brings together leading researchers in computational genomics to discuss emerging frontiers in algorithm development for massively parallel sequencing data The 10th meeting in this series, RECOMB-Seq 2020, was scheduled to be held in Padua, Italy, but due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the meeting was carried out virtually instead The online workshop featured keynote talks by Paola Bonizzoni and Zamin Iqbal, two highlight talks, ten regular talks, and three short talks Seven of the works presented in the workshop are featured in this edition of iScience, and many of the talks are available online in the RECOMB-Seq 2020 YouTube channel © 2020 The Authors Genomics;Quantitative Genetics;Bioinformatics © 2020 The Authors
