+# bw-msu-tools
+Archive of personal scripts repository from my various projects in the Buell Lab at MSU (Jan. 2008 - Apr. 2011)
+
+Most of the scripts here were (ill-?)conceived and authored by me --- with a few exceptions (eg: a couple BioPerl utility scripts)
+that I'd modified to fix bugs (eg: to correct GFF3 encoding, etc.) --- while working on the following projects:
+
+- Solanaceae Comparative Genomics Resource
+- Potato Genome Sequencing Consortium (PGSC)
+- Solanaceae Coordinated Agricultural Project (SolCAP)
+- Pythium ultimum genome project
+... and maybe others I'm forgetting.
+
+{insert pubmed links here}
+
+See https://buell-lab.github.io/
+
+P.S.: At the time these scripts were written, dumping your *personal utility scripts* into a public repo was still sort of a thing that only
+folks into peacocking would do (and maybe it's just that more bioinformatics folks are into peacocking now); in any case, that's why these
+are only being deposited as an archival mirror here now. Yes it's Perl code, and yes there's a lot of it.
