WEBINAR: Global data resources for human genomics and health

This record includes training materials associated with the Australian BioCommons webinar ‘Global data resources for human genomics and health’. This webinar took place on 20 September 2024.
Event description
Dr Mallory Freeberg takes us on a whirlwind tour of the human genomics data resources available at EMBL's European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI). Used by scientists across the world, these resources enable the discovery and exploration of genes, variants and their impact on human health and disease.
Resources that will be covered in this webinar include:

Ensembl: a genome browser that supports research in comparative genomics, evolution, sequence variation and transcriptional regulation 

DECIPHER: an interactive web-based database and suite of tools that aid the clinical interpretation of genomic variants

Federated EGA: a global resource for discovery and access of sensitive human omics and associated data consented for secondary use

Perturbation Catalogue: a new project from Open Targets that is building a catalogue of harmonised and curated human gene, variant, and expression data

EMBL-EBI’s comprehensive range of freely available and up-to-date molecular data resources are used by scientists globally. The teams running these resources collaborate closely with international experts and are key partners in human genomic data sharing communities including the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health. 
Speaker: Dr Mallory Freeberg, Human Genomics Team Leader, EMBL European Bioinformatics Institute
