I will soon become the Executive Director of @embl.org, leading EMBL with Peer Bork whilst EMBL finds its next Director General, my colleague, Jo McEntyre will become @ebi.embl.org's Interim Director. Jo's leadership and experience means I am confident EMBL-EBI will flourish over this time
📣 EMBL-EBI leadership update

Worth stressing that computers from across the world access EMBL-EBI 100 million times a day - sometimes for a tiny lookup, sometimes to download large amounts of public domain information about the world we live in.

I am very proud to be part of the @ebi.embl.org community delivering on this
