Congratulations to @irenepapatheodo and @EarlhamInst. Looking forward to future collaborations.
I'm delighted to share that I will be moving to @EarlhamInst to lead the data science strategy for all-omics, imaging data. I cannot wait to join the wonderful research community at Norwich Research Park, BBSRC and beyond to push for standardised, open data, tools, resources! 1/2

This is a great opportunity! Freedom, competitive starting package and amazing data resources and colleagues. I applied 5 years ago and didn’t regret a single bit.
Are you our new Group Leader? We will recruit early-stage group leaders in molecular medicine with notable international experience and ability to provide novel and complementary contributions to existing research at FIMM, @HiLIFE_helsinki & @helsinkiuni. helsinki.fi/en/hilife-helsin…

Great to see @pilarcacheiro presenting @IMPC related essential gene data at #ESHG2023
I look kind of sad on that picture, but I enjoyed my session and presentation despite the overwhelming venue. Great conference. Loved to catch up with old colleagues, beyond grateful for the support of my current ones. We make a great team @SmedleyDamian @Val3Cipriani! #ESHG2023

A reminder for Ontology Lookup Service users to migrate to OLS4 please. Thanks to @HarmseHenriette @serjoshua and James McLaughlin for their work on the sleeker, faster and easier to maintain OLS4
28 Apr 2023
OLS4 is stable now and we recommend users to migrate to OLS4 (ebi.ac.uk/ols4) soonest. OLS3 is no longer maintained and its ontologies are no longer updated. OLS3 will be switched off on 30 Oct 2023. Any OLS4 related issues can be logged at github.com/EBISPOT/ols4/issu….
