What our current active members have to say

“An ELIXIR Implementational Study stimulated our development of a real-time link to use the Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor (VEP) REST server to map variants input by the user in a genomic coordinate system onto the proteins structures we display in our database.”

“LIPID MAPS contributes to the ELIXIR metabolomics community and my own interests in Research Data Management have positioned me to lead the ELIXIR-UK’s Data Management Working Group. ELIXIR-UK has enabled us to curate lipid structures and pathways in partnership with other ELIXIR data resources in Europe. Additionally, I have been able to co-Lead our recent successful UKRI bid to develop training in FAIR Research Data Management.”
