🇩🇪💻 ERGA was present at the @elixir-europe.org #BioHackEU25 in Berlin last week! Our Annotation & Data Analysis Committees worked on two projects: - Benchmarking BUSCO genes for #phylogenomics - Streamlining #FAIR metadata for genome annotations #ERGA #community #bioinformatics #genomics
🏙️ Last week, #ERGA joined the @vertebrategenomes.bsky.social #VGP Conference in NYC, a great chance to connect with @ebpgenome.bsky.social projects and share progress on #FAIR genome assemblies & reporting under @biogeneurope.bsky.social www.erga-biodiversity.eu/post/erga-me... #genomes #conference
