Are you attending the HIRN Annual Meeting December 2nd-4th? PanKbase appears at two sessions; one will discuss PanKbase's progress, mission, and goals and a second along with @dknet.org, will feature an interactive demonstration of PanKbase.

Kyle Gaulton is giving an update on our PanKbase pancreas knowledgebase platform at today's American Pancreas Association meeting. If you are in San Diego, and interested in integrated datasets of the pancreas in TID, stop by. We aim to get community input of where we should go next!

PanKbase PI @annagloyn.bsky.social is giving a talk tomorrow at the American Pancreas Association meeting on “Tools for Basic Exocrine Research We Can Borrow from our Islet Neighbors”

Last month, members from our PanKbase team in conjunction with @dknet.org gave a bootcamp for the Sugar Science D challenge on how to mine data sets from PanKbase and Panc-DB. If you're interested in how you can mine the data for your own research, watch here: youtu.be/hIDoUfHXeFg?...
