SYMPOSIUMCELEBRATINGTHE5THANNIVERSARYOFTHEde.NBI

In March 2015, the GermanMinistryofEducationandResearch(BMBF) launchedthede.NBIprojectwiththeaimof establishingaGermany-widebioinformatics infrastructureofferingbioinformaticsservice, training and international cooperation.Now, five years later, the network isoperatingverysuccessfullyandcelebratedits5thanniversarywithasymposiumon13

February2020attheSeminarsCampusHotelinBerlin.

Morethan150scientiststookpartinthesymposium,mostofthemmembersofthenetwork,butalsotheScientificAdvi-soryBoard,membersofthereviewerteam,membersofthede.NBIIndustrialForum,andrepresentativesoftheMinistryandprojectmanagement.

ThesymposiumwasopenedbytheBMBFrepresentativeMatthiasKölbelwhofocusedonthesuccessfulestablishmentofthebioinformaticsinfrastructurewhichnowneedsasustainablecontinuation.Inthefirstsession,thede.NBIcoordinatorAlfPühlerstartedwithanoverviewonthede.NBIhighlights,followedbythreede.NBIpresentationsfocusingonbioin-formaticsforhumans,plantsandmicrobes.Inthesecondsessionexternalexpertspresentedtheirviewsonspecificas-pectsofthede.NBInetwork.TheELIXIRdirectorNiklasBlomberginformedontheELIXIRorganizationanditscoopera-tionwithde.NBI.RolfApweiler,directorofEMBL-EBI,usedhistalktoreportondigitalmedicineinGermanyandEurope.Finally,DietrichRebholz-Schuhmann,directorofZBMED InformationCenter forLife Sciences,presentedhis instituteengagedinhandlingofresearchdatainthelifescience.
