EMBL-EBI champions open data in the life sciences, with data sets spanning genomics, proteins, small molecules, ontologies and more. They were a natural partner for Google DeepMind to host the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database, now making over 200m protein structure predictions freely available to scientists globally.

Prof Dame Janet Thornton and Mihaly Varadi are helping transform biology at the European Bioinformatics Institute of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL-EBI), an intergovernmental research organisation funded by over 20 member states.

  • Oh my God! Thanks Deepmind! Thanks Google! A brighter future for scientists... for a better world!!
  • Just yesterday I started using embl-ebi datasets of CpG islands for my research...
  • @zoundsic
    Was expecting this. but not for decade or so. Impressive
  • @LuciousKage
    U know what cant believe in ???????? How is this not biggest NEWS in news channels already?????? WTF is wrong with our world
  • I am really looking forward to this technology working to remove our need to use animal models in drug research and to make the drug discovery process more efficient. The cost savings and accuracy would be exponential!
  • لمن يبحث عن معنى للحياة .. ان تعيش مثل هذه اللحظات هو معنى الحياة الحقيقي
