Thank you very much Manovikas Kendra Kolkata for hosting our Ensembl Genome Browser and Train the Trainer workshops!

I enjoyed learning about the neurodiversity research done here and it was great to see how it is readily applied to improving patient's lives!

Good data needs great guidance – EMBL-EBI have adopted the Responsible Handover Framework into their new Ensembl Beta site, helping thousands interpret genomic data and use their tools with confidence.

Find out more: senseaboutscience.org/activities/r...

@ebi.embl.org @ensembl.org
Quote from Beth Flint, Ensembl Coordinator at EMBL-EBI: "We’re always excited to see Ensembl data being used by the scientific community to tackle big questions in biology and genomics. As soon as we heard about the Responsible Handover Framework we wanted to use it for Ensembl. We hope it aids our users in developing a solid understanding of our data and how it is generated so that they can be confident when they incorporate it into their work.”

Happy Birthday to Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958), whose pioneering work on the crystal structure of DNA led to the discovery of DNA's double helix shape and ultimately to everything we do at Ensembl today! #DNA #WomeninSTEM
