- Reposted by International Society for BiocurationI wrote a blog for the Meta-Research Center expressing my infinite frustration about not getting data. What else is new, you might think? Well, I added an extra layer of annoyance directed at the journals who do NOTHING to enforce promised data sharing. metaresearch.nl/blog/2026/2/...

- Reposted by International Society for BiocurationAccuracy isn’t just better data — it’s global infrastructure. 🧬🌍 That’s why EBP sets the bar high. By prioritizing near-complete, reference-grade genomes, EBP reduces assembly artefacts and misleading biological inferences — ensuring downstream analyses reflect real biology, not technical error.
