The Pathogens Portal: A gateway to vast biomolecular data for pathogen research
The COVID-19 pandemic starkly illuminated the crucial role of open biodata in combating infectious diseases. EMBL-EBI, recognising this significance, swiftly launched the COVID-19 Data Portal, a centralised repository for SARS-CoV-2-related biomolecular data. Building upon this success, the Pathogens Portal emerges as the "spiritual" successor, expanding its scope to encompass a broader spectrum of pathogens.The Pathogens Portal serves as a comprehensive resource for researchers, clinicians, and policymakers seeking access to a wealth of biomolecular data related to a diverse range of pathogens. It aims to facilitate rapid knowledge discovery, accelerate disease prevention and treatment strategies, and foster collaboration across the scientific community.This webinar introduces the Pathogens Portal to users, demonstrating the why and how it exists, how we decide what pathogens are included as well as a tour of the features in the portal. It will deepen participants' understanding of how to use the portal and introduce features that are part of the broader platform such as the datahubs, a system for sharing data in a controlled access environment.
