REMINDER - Monthly Webinar Next Wed, Dec, 4th, at 12 PM CT

by Annarita Marrano

Hi everybody, Join us for our monthly webinar next Wednesday, Dec. 4th, at 12 PM CDT. Sarah Dyer will discuss Ensembl as a precious resource for annotated genomes across the tree of life. I have included more details about the webinar and the Zoom link to attend the webinar below. I hope you will join us. Best, Annarita :-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-: *Abstracts:* *Plants, pollinators, and pests in Ensembl - integrating genomics data for agriculturally relevant species* Ensembl is an open platform integrating publicly available genomic data to support the exploration of gene annotations, genetic variation, and comparative genomics. Increasing numbers of genomes are available for agriculturally relevant species, with multiple high-quality genomes now being generated for many crops. In addition, large scale biodiversity projects are increasing the number of insect genomes available for pest and pollinator species. Providing ways to explore this genomic data is key to supporting research and breeding efforts for agricultural species. Ensembl Metazoa and Ensembl Plants now hold more than 380 invertebrate and almost 160 plant genomes, respectively. In addition, our new Ensembl site ( https://beta.ensembl.org) already holds more than 1,500 invertebrate and over 100 plant genomes. The new site will ultimately replace the current suite of Ensembl component sites, bringing annotated genomes together from across the tree of life. In this webinar we will look at the species, data types and tools you can find in Ensembl and ways you can access these resources. *| 1P ET | 12P CT | 11A MT | 10A PT |* Find your local time here <https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=AgBioData+Monthly…> *Join Zoom Meetinghttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/82038356125?pwd=YVFMRElMdEpHZmtObXFvZlA4QVFXQT09 <https://us06web.zoom.us/j/82038356125?pwd=YVFMRElMdEpHZmtObXFvZlA4QVFXQT09>* Meeting ID: 820 3835 6125 Passcode: 160683

REMINDER - Join us for a virtual round table on AI and biocuration TOMORROW (12 PM CT)

by Annarita Marrano

Dear all, We invite the AgBioData community to *a virtual roundtable on artificial intelligence* in agricultural genomics *TOMORROW (November 6) at 12 PM Central Time* (Zoom link <https://us06web.zoom.us/j/82038356125?pwd=YVFMRElMdEpHZmtObXFvZlA4QVFXQT09> ). AI and natural language processing (NLP) for biocuration are becoming more popular in the community, allowing several applications and creating new data-related issues. *We invite the AgBioData member databases and the larger community to provide feedback on these challenges*, help us understand their importance for the AgBioData member databases, and define the focus of new AgBioData working groups. The meeting will be 1-hour long and will feature breakout room sessions on two main topics: - *How databases can make data ready for AI* - *NLP for biocuration.* Please forward this invite to anyone you think might be interested.
