Mobilising the wealth of genome sequence-mapped data through consolidated #FAIR metadata and connected services. Towards an RDA working group as #RDATIGER pilot








The newest addition to the RDA EU team and #RDATIGER Senior Facilitator Ryan O'Connor is at the #OSFAIR2023 this week showcasing @resdatall, its groups and outputs, and how #RDATIGER can support the internationalisation of your projects!

🎉 Happy 70th Birthday to Eivind Hovig! 🎂🥳 Your outstanding contributions to #bioinformatics have paved the way for groundbreaking research in Norway and beyond. 🧬🇳🇴 Your dedication and expertise are invaluable to us, @UniOslo, @UiO_LifeSci & @Oslounivsykehus. 🏆🔬







New to the RDA? Still not sure about attending the #RDAPlenary 21 in #Salzburg? Register for one of webinars to learn more about the RDA community, how to get involved, and make the most of the P21. 🌏 World friendly webinar times bit.ly/3QurkYh










We’re at the International Congress of Genetics and Genomics in Melbourne! If you are interested in helping us bring about uniform search for genome annotations, or tracks, please come over for a chat. I will be presenting poster #224 tomorrow 12-14. #ICG2023


Billions of dollars go into research projects that generate large amounts of publicly available genomic data, says Sveinung Gunderson @UniOslo_MED - now @fairtracks wants to bring it all together. #icg2023 @Genetics2023 @fairtracks fairtracks.net

Jeff Christensen, Deputy Director of @AusBiocommons, telling the @GeneticsAus AGM about national bioinformatics infrastructure support genomics: lots of resources available to (and subsided for!) Australian researchers. Check out Aus BioCommons website or booth for more info.

It's official: #refget v2.0 is the next GA4GH standard. bit.ly/3XTm4z1 This API for reliably finding the right reference sequence powers all #CRAM files. v2.0 users include GA4GH VRS, @ENASequence, and soon @ensembl. Thanks to @emblebi's @tcezard & @enscore and the team!


📣 ELIXIR has renewed its collaboration strategy with @AusBiocommons! Both organisations work to 🙌 further #openaccess to resources to understand the molecular basis of life and have been collaborating for many years. Read the news 👉 elixir-europe.org/news/ABC-ELIXI…
