Hub needs chromAlias files or at least some way to find a chromosome.

Hello,

Thank you for sending your follow-up inquiry.

Unfortunately, we do not maintain the HG002 assembly hub, so we cannot make any changes. Benedict Paten's lab maintains the hub at UCSC, and you can contact Marina Haukness (mhauknes@ucsc.edu) to request setting up a chromAlias file to search for chromosome names like "chr7":

I hope this is helpful. If you have any further questions, please reply to genome@soe.ucsc.edu.
All messages sent to that address are archived on a publicly accessible Google Groups forum.
If your question includes sensitive data, you may send it instead to genome-www@soe.ucsc.edu.

I would be interested in upcoming workshops or live training. I've been watching the youtube videos but it doesn't answer my question.

I am trying to upload the HG002 map from the Pangenome project so I can look at specific chromosome ends. Through the Pangenome website, I was able to find HG002 on the Genome browser but when I type "ch7" for example it provides an error message or how-to-tutorials. Do you know what I'm doing wrong or who I could possibly ask?
