🎉We are thrilled that #StrainInfo 🧫 and all other #NFDI4Microbiota services will continue to be funded through @nfdi.de until the end of 2028!

The work plan for the second funding phase also includes new developments for #MediaDive 🧪 and #BacDive 🦠.

Stay tuned for exciting things to come ✨
🎉 Great #RDM news 🎉

The #GWK decided that NFDI4Microbiota and other consortia of the @nfdi.de will continue to a second funding phase!

🤝 We will continue to develop our services for the #microbiology community. Thank you to all collaborators!

Have you tried out the new #StrainInfo yet?

We are ending our #DGHMVAAM2024 trip with an introduction to StrainInfo during the @nfdi4microbiota.bsky.social 🦠 session on Wednesday starting at 12:45 in Room 13.
June 5, 2024 at 7:37 AM
The development of #StrainInfo 🧫 was an #NFDI4Microbiota 🦠 use case and the database will soon be integrated into the #NFDI4Microbiota web portal.

You can already find the database at straininfo.dsmz.de

Microbes in total or just bacteria? DSMZ have done the best job I know off for creating resources like BacDive or StrainInfo, but I'm pretty sure they are bacteria specific and might lack strains that weren't ever deposited in a culture collection

Using ROR for Funder Identification
Several widely used scholarly systems are using ROR IDs to identify and disambiguate funders. In this post, we’ll give you a glimpse of how and why these systems use ROR IDs for funder identifiers.
