🗞️New paper out in npj Biodiversity! 👩🔬Scientists from 33 European countries join forces to create genomes for the continent's species With #CNAG, Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE), Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales, Institut Botànic de Barcelona, Estación Biológica de Doñana - CSIC, BSC-CNS, IRB Barcelona, CIBERESP, INB / ELIXIR-ES 📎cnag.eu/news/dna-maps-…


🚨 We are excited to announce a collection of important papers from npj Biodiversity and Heredity, contributing to the European Reference Genome Atlas (ERGA) initiative, published today! 1/6 ➡️ nature.com/collections/hb… Nature Portfolio npj Journals European Reference Genome Atlas

🧬 Flagship genomes of ERGA. This third paper highlights the pilot genome sequencing project, which showcases how ERGA partners across Europe are contributing to biodiversity conservation through genomics. ➡️nature.com/articles/s4418… 4/6 Ann Mc Cartney #Genomics #Conservation #ERGA

The European Reference Genome Atlas Pilot Project reports its success in uniting researchers from across Europe to produce high-quality reference genomes for 98 species. This continental effort is setting the stage for a new, inclusive and equitable model for biodiversity genomics.


A wonderful write up on the European Reference Genome Atlas Pilot Project by UC Santa Cruz : news.ucsc.edu/2024/09/erga-p…
