Mobilising the wealth of genome sequence-mapped data through consolidated #FAIR metadata and connected services. Towards an RDA working group as #RDATIGER pilot
We are excited to announce the new JASPAR 2024 tracks for hg19, hg38, mm10, and mm39 which represent genome-wide predicted binding sites for transcription factors with binding profiles in the JASPAR CORE collection (@jaspar_db).

We are proud to announce a new hg38 track group consisting of @HumanPangenome data. In this first release, there are tracks displaying features and variations of HPRC results compared to hg38, as well as alignment tracks.

Thank you Ryan and the others in #RDATIGER for your ongoing facilitation of the "FAIRification of Genomic Annotations" working group initiative: tinyurl.com/rda-fair-tracks
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!
Eivind also took the initiative for the FAIRtracks project ( The Genomic HyperBrowser statistical analysis framework, back in 2005 or so)!
Congratulations!🎂🥳
Btw: please register to the #2 kickoff for our new #rda working group, Sept 25, UTC 2-3:30pm: tinyurl.com/rda-fair-tracks
🎉 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. 🏆🔬

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
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.
This has been a long road since our PR was opened 4th March 2020. I am immensely proud of the work that's gone into refget from its origins in the CRAM Reference Registry to now as a foundational standard in genomics. Thank you to all who have contributed
We are happy to announce the release of the Highly Reproducible genomic regions for sequencing for the human (GRCh38/hg38) genome assembly, which is part of the Problematic Regions supertrack.
Learn more about this release from the following news post: genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/n…
📣 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.
