MorphoBank is an invaluable #openaccess resource for #phylogentetics researchers. And now, it's better than ever, with new site architecture, faster, more efficient processing, and a more intuitive interface. 🧪 bit.ly/3WImTLj #biology #evolutionarybiology #treeoflife #paleontology #scisky

Wait… did you say there’s a new MorphoBank? That’s right. MorphoBank is now faster, cleaner, more scaleable, and more sustainable. Learn more on our blog phoenixbioinfo.org/presenting-t... 🧪 #biology #evolutionarybiology #phylogenetics #treeoflife #systematics #cladistics #paleontology

Celebrate the first year of Katina Magazine with us at the "Katina Cantina" 🎉 Raise a glass and enjoy some hors d'oeuvres as we look back at a successful year and look forward to the future of librarianship elevated! #chsconf2025 arevie.ws/3Jmkx1C

Two years ago we undertook a volunteer-driven effort to reannotate the #Arabidopsis thaliana genome. Over 70 researchers in labs all over the world contributed. Read our latest status update 🧪➡️ phoenixbioinfo.org/get-ready-ta... #TAIR12 #plantbiology #plantscience #scisky

Happy #OAweek! This week the research and #scholcomm communities celebrate #OpenAccess, and consider the question of "Who owns our knowledge?" For MorphoBank the answer is simple: creators do. We encourage maximally open CC0 licensing, and support a range of other Creative Commons options.

An interesting study of life science database sustainability using MorphoBank as one of the case examples 🧪 #openscience #openaccess #databases #opendata

It’s a wrap. See you in Singapore 🇸🇬 in 2026 #icar2026

In case you were wondering, it’s a great jar opener. #icar2025 #swag #notAmousepad

With @tairnews.bsky.social at the first ever plant bio hub meeting. Excited to hear the talks and to hang out with old friends and new.

Even a tiny weed can have impacts on human health. Excellent new paper from the Gene Ontology Consortium describing a compendium of human gene function that used experimental annotations from many model organisms including Arabidopsis. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
