Australia Bioinformatics Resource
The Australia Bioinformatics Resource (EMBL-ABR) (formerly the Bioinformatics Resource Australia - EMBL (BRAEMBL)) was a significant initiative under the associate membership to EMBL. Since 2019, all activities carried out under EMBL-ABR have rolled over into the Bioplatforms Australia (NCRIS-funded) Australian BioCommons, under new funding agreements and led by Associate Professor Andrew Lonie. EMBL-ABR aimed to: # Increase Australia’s capacity to collect, integrate, analyse, exploit, share and archive the large heterogeneous data sets now part of modern life sciences research # Contribute to the development of and provide training in data, tools and platforms to enable Australia’s life science researchers to undertake research in the age of big data # Showcase Australian research and datasets at an international level # Enable engagement in international programs that create, deploy and develop best practice approaches to data management, software tools and methods, compu ...
