#Biocuration is essential to transform unstructured biological data into machine-readable and structured resources. While institutional databases (e.g. #UniProt) can afford professional biocuration, many smaller initiatives rely on volunteer efforts (2/8).
Have you ever used a #bioinformatics #database and were frustrated by its lack of coverage? Did you ever think about starting your own resource? We just published a new strategy for community-driven #biocuration, based on our experiences with the #MIBiG database (1/8)! doi.org/10.1093/bib/...
FINAL DEADLINE β Last chance to submit your abstract for #IBC2026 ! Don't miss the chance to present your work at the meeting in April in South Africa either in-person or virtually. www.bioinformaticsinstitute.africa/form/biocura...

A #Bioinformatics giant passes away. Very sad to hear this news today. Sad for Switzerland, and for the whole world. Amos Bairoch was a part of the Bioinformatics community for many decades. He will be missed. #Database #Biocuration #SwissProt #Prosite #Cellosaurus |
www.sib.swiss/news/amos-ba...
Amos was not only a giant of #bioinformatics and #biocuration, but one of the nicest people I've met in academia. His support and advice were invaluable when we were establishing @bgeedb, and I will always remember how warmly he welcomed us to @SIB when I arrived in Switzerland 20 years ago [β¦]
