Earlier this year we launched the Ensembl #COVID19 genome browser: covid-19.ensembl.org/index.html You can now read about the available #data in the latest preprint, bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Registration is open for 2 virtual #Ensembl workshops covering the #genome browser and the #RESTAPI! 🔸 Browser: 26th-28th Jan 2021, 2-5pm (GMT) 🔸 REST API: 3rd-5th Feb 2021, 2-4:15pm (GMT) More information and registration: buff.ly/3ba9Dsd #bioinformatics #genomics

PSA: Ensembl plants is really an amazing resource for teaching and research alike. It never ceases to amaze me how much information you can find there.

It's my final day teaching on the @IAMZCIHEAM MSc. Plant #genetics, #genomics and breeding course with BContrerasMoreira and ernesto lowy. We've covered alignment and variant calling, variant annotation with the Ensembl #VEP and comparative genomics using the Ensembl Genomes data🌱🌾

The first virtual, open browser Ensembl browser workshop of 2021 has drawn to a close, with participants from Melbourne to Singapore to California. The most amazing thing about virtual workshops is the ability to train people all over the world at the same time 🌎🌍🌏 #genomics

In our contribution to the fight against the #COVID19 pandemic, we have added important #SARS_CoV_2 mutation data related to rapidly spreading strains into our #SARS_CoV_2 browser, including COVID-19 Genomics UK (COG-UK) Consortium priority mutations. Read more in our blog: buff.ly/3cMaOyK

Just finished a great course on fungal genomics run by FungiDB MycoCosm SGD, CGD, Ensembl Genomes and others. Highly recommend to everyone working with fungi

Just spent a week with Wellcome Sanger Institute on their Fungal Pathogen Genomics course. Thanks to FungiDB , Ensembl Genomes , MycoCosm , SGD Project @[email protected] (bsky too) and CGD instructors for your wisdom and insights! Fantastic course! I’m ready to dive into databases 😁.

On this course, you’ll learn how to train students, peers, professionals, and future experts in genomic techniques, and come away able to plan and design engaging lessons for adult learners.
