We strive to be fully transparent about all aspects of VEuPathDB operations, activities, and plans! Take a look at our recently updated "Frequently Asked Questions" here: veupathdb.org/veupathdb/app/…

VEuPathDB conducted a survey recently to assess the importance of our resources and to explore potential funding strategies following funding changes. We got 1,862 responses! Huge thanks to everyone who took this survey! We will share the results and survey report this week.

The survey asked users to estimate the impact on their lab's productivity (from 0-100) if VEuPathDB resources were to disappear altogether. We also asked them to describe the impact. ✏️The infographic shows a few key themes that emerged from nearly 1500 comments!

We asked, "How else would you accomplish the tasks for which you use VEuPathDB?" 💬 Survey says- there are no clear alternatives! One comment that summarized the issue of fragmented alternatives- “It would be very tedious and would require using many, many other resources.”

In the survey, we gauged the feasibility of a fee-for-service model to sustain VEuPathDB operations. A significant majority of respondents were fully or conditionally supportive of this. Thousands of thoughtful comments converged on key recommendations to implement such a model.

We appreciate your thoughtful responses to the VEuPathDB User Impact and Sustainability Survey and are making results available as promised! Full report: static-content.veupathdb.org/documents/PUBL… 2-Page Summary: static-content.veupathdb.org/documents/Surv…

🌟 NEW! We're posting YouTube shorts to highlight useful features in VEuPathDB. First up, one of our unique and well-loved features- Search Strategies- 🛠️ a great tool for mining our vast data resources to find just the genes you need. youtu.be/iAm25M7t4D8?si…

There are many ways to search through the vast contents of VEuPathDB. Today's short video on "Site Search" shows the power of a simple little search window 🪟to open up a big menu of options where you can drill down and filter to the content you need: youtu.be/VVyf9so0IU8?si…

The VEuPathDB sites have specialized searches 🔍 to help you find genes on the basis of transcriptomics, phenotype, protein features, and DOZENS of other criteria. Watch this short video to learn more about searching for the right search! youtube.com/shorts/dd_VzdS…
